There are many unusual sites in Bahrain. Some of them are seen while sitting in traffic jams. This is why I always carry my camera! There are several times, when the sight is so fleeting, that I can't get my camera out fast enough. But sometimes I am lucky. The photo above is the back of a truck, with artwork, which I captured while sitting in one of those traffic jams.
What's this? A picture of a "sleeping policeman"? a speed bump? or as we call them in Bahrain, humps? There is even a road that we all know as "Humps Road" which has so many humps, every few hundred feet, I avoid driving on it. In the above photo is a "famous" bump that disappeared a few days before President Bush arrived in Bahrain, and re-appeared a few days after he left. The bump is on the route, that Bush would be traveling to the US base, so either its removal was for a smooth ride, or for a quick get-away, we are not sure. An Urban myth???

How about an explanation for the FIRST photo? What IS that? and how did you manage to snap a picture right when it was going by the sign?? Great shot! But again, what IS that?
