Supplementary Post- Beirut snaps

Dad took a few shots of Beirut that I haven't used in the diary posts... here they are:

"Beirut 1947.

The mountains in

the background are

the home of the 

Winter Sports."

Baalbek

I have now been able to identify this building.  The wonders of Google!  It is the great Umayyad Mosque in Damascus

...but where is this Square?  Damascus or Beirut?

Harmonising horns on high speed American cars...

Ron is on the far left

The lovely Erica... the one with the 18' yacht!

Beach party with the Ladies from the British Council,...

...and now from the other side.
