Walk with me ~ My street
Hello my friends,
Today I wanna show you where I live... My street, St. #37, is right by the back end of the airport. You can hear and see every plane taking off from my window...
The corner of the airport at night:
I was welcomed by these jasmines when I first came here. They're not like the Damascene jasmines but they smell nice.
Beware, as you photograph, you shall be photographed
Here's one of the most interesting flowers I found in this country, they call it forbia. I thought it's not real first time I saw it. I still do sometimes, even though I have one on my window now!!!
And behind you would be another flower...
Then there's my building. It used to be a villa, then they turned it into an apartment building...
There's a small football field beside the building...
And a nice cafe behind it...
Nice plants growing here and there.
I thought that's a nice house to live in with the big garden inside and the plants surrounding it.
And if you're thirsty, and you're okay with this, you can have a drink...
So after I thought it's a nice house... It turned out to be one of my students' house. & I got to see the inside garden, as well. The cattail is the funniest thing I found there.
If you keep walking, you'll find yourself in front of this big church, with nothing separating it from the mosque but one wall.
Take off your shoes. You're in a holy place.
Here's the only shady places in the whole long street.
I'm not the only one who's looking for some shade.
Just follow the tracks... ;)
I know it's too hot here. But I'm not gonna sit in the mud to cool off.
And this cat is relaxing on the wall of the academy where I teach.
I'm lucky to have found work so close to my place.
At the other end of the street, there's this furniture place which reminds me of my bestie cuz we used to play Uno all the time.
& the smell of fresh cakes and pastries will make you cross the street like a hypnotized person just to get to Bakemart...
Of course, my street is sooooooooooooo hot like it is around here. And it certainly has some things I don't even like but I wanted to show you the bright side of it. & I hope you liked it.
Thanks for coming with me on my walk.
Don't forget to resteem.
Excellent Photography and good content.
Hey @scorpii! Thanks for showing us around your street. The flowers are brilliant! They always are. The flowers you call cat tails are beautiful. But, they look very different from what we call cat tails here. I love seeing your smiling self! Hope you're doing well friend. Much love & many blessings to you ❤
That was super cool @scorpii! The little boys went for the walk too, they especially loved the black cat with the funny eyes. I enjoyed all of the different flowers, and was super cool to see those dirt roads!
The kids, too?? Oh my god, so sweet! What did they say??
His eyes are funny indeed, I noticed that while I was posting it. hihihi
I'm really glad you enjoyed my walk. I walk that street every day from home to work and back...
They said that the loved that cat, and that your apartment looked 'weird'. And then I showed them photos of Damascus .... and told them about your old apartment...then they said your new apartment is very good!

Remember that the first photo is often used as the cover photo on sites like steemit.com - so it may be a good idea to put one of the best photos first in the post - and I don't think the mostly black diagonal photo of the airport is the best shot in this post :-)
