Like everywhere on the Mediterranean, Beirut really comes alive in the evenings, when the extreme heat of the day has given way to a nice, mellow warmth. People tend to congregate along the waterfront, to stroll, chat, eat, and other people-watch, and there is an extraordinary night-time cafe culture throughout the city. On our last night before flying back to the UK we went for dinner at a restaurant just beside the sea; we were sitting outside and were treated to the most spectacular sunset (and some wonderful food), which of course necessitated frantic photograph-taking on my part. Yesterday when I was posting my pictures for my little piece on Jordan & Lebanon I couldn't choose between all the different sunset photos (it's like picking a favourite child; don't ask me to do that - what is wrong with you?!), so I thought I'd just put a selection of them up here, in a separate post. I hope you like them! P.S., While I'm at it, here's a close-up of my Lebanese sweets that I brought back for work (look at all the pretty colours!):

About my blog
Really, it contains a little bit of everything, from a celebration of science and the English language to the joys of travel and the Shipping Forecast.
