Ramadan Lanterns





NPR had a short piece on Egyptian Ramadan lanterns today. I have one--regular readers will remember me getting it in Cairo a few years ago. The bottom photo is my lantern, and the top shows one of the kiosks that line the streets of Cairo this time of year. Ramadan lanterns are colorful and gorgeous. I wish I could have a dozen in my apartment.
