Spotted: Horse-Drawn Cart in Gemmayzeh

Now we can come up with a hundred excuses as to why a man would be driving a horse-drawn cart around the streets of Gemmayzeh.

Maybe he doesn’t have a car. Or maybe his brother is borrowing his car. Or maybe his horse really needs exercise. Or perhaps he’s reenacting a scene from the 18th century. Or he could just be a really, really dedicated hipster.

Still, you’ve gotta admit—it’s pretty damn weird, especially considering the fact that he’s surrounded by cars on a pretty populated street. It’s a wonder the horse didn’t freak out.

And anyways, regardless of horsepower, with all the traffic in Beirut these days I bet the horse is just as efficient as a car.
