Finally, the Garlic Has Arrived

 It has been an unusually cold month of March in Cairo.  Usually by the last weeks of this month, bougainvillea and other tropical varieties are in full bloom but not this year.  (See this old post for pictures.)

 

Daytime highs have been in the low to mid 60s for the past two weeks.  Even the garlic is late.  Just yesterday we saw the first truckload of garlic coming into town.

Update: At the end of March, we saw this load coming in (slowly) from the Fayoum area along the new Ring Road extension:
