This photo was taken in May 2000 in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley.

We had hired the taxi driver to take us from Beirut to the Roman ruins at Baalbek and the Umayyad ruins of Anjar.

The driver amused us all day by constantly wiggling his little finger in his right ear, presumably due to an itch. At times his finger moved faster than Flat Eric headbanging!

The grin on his face when we gave him a $10 tip was an absolute picture.
