The Joy of Beirut
Peter Sullivan recently celebrated a milestone birthday with his daughters in Beirut. He shares some interesting insights about his trip with us in the following article.
Before going to Beirut to celebrate my 70th birthday with my daughters, I met Lebanon’s Ambassador to South Africa. He asked what I knew of his country. “Not a lot” I confessed.
“It is smaller than the Kruger Park. Sea and beach one side, then mountains, then a valley, then higher mountains for skiing. On small west side, Israel border. All around rest of country, Syria. “You will feel you are in the Western Cape. Wine estates, green, lovely valley, mountains.”
