    Its sad to see such a nice country ruined. All those signs speak volumes of how geeed for power can send an entire country down on its knees. Of course despite all that its awesome to see some places and people moving on. Thank you for sharing Steiners. ❤️

    I just came across this video and I have to say that it was amazing seeing you all in Lebanon. I am originally Lebanese but have been living away for most of my life. It really is sad and depressing to see what has happened to the Downtown area, it is indeed a ghost town. Up until 3 years ago, it used to be a very popular place, full of life and hope, with restaurants, shops and bars but then everything took a turn for the worst. The reason there are guards all around that area is because the Lebanese Parliament is located inside the Place de L'Etoile and so security is quite strict. Thank you sharing these great experiences and trying to show as best as possible the good things about Lebanon.

    Just a thought. Why not Harry and Oscar start writing their adventures in every country they visits and then publish once back home. “Around The World With The Steiner Kids.” Trust me it may become a best seller in the Europe and NZ and Australia.

    As a Lebanese local, Lebanon is a really beautiful country in fact it’s the only Arab country without a desert and temperatures are neutral and nature is amazing but Lebanon has 1 big flaw, the political corruption, about 5 years ago 1 dollar in Lebanese’s currency is 1,500 L.L. It was considered average but due to politics now 1 dollar is 50,000 L.L. Like that’s insane so hopefully god sends us a miracle to save Lebanon ❤

    Was in Lebanon in the hills in 1980 and 1990 - in on the Israelis border . A complete war zone murder on a daily basis and we were blamed for everything even though it was all the others who were trying to kill each other . I still feel so so sad for the ordiany folks who had nothing , caught up in the middle of world politics whose country was being used as a boxing ring- got to know many people and became friends and I still think of them and cry for them. I’m Irish and we know all about wars thT go on for hundreds of years and there is still one going on here cos since 1160 and the last chapter started in 1690 and has another 400 years to go - and all the innocent folks just want to live in peace . If the main aggressor no not Britain ( Scotland and wales did nothing to us) but England who run down everyone around them would just go home to England then it would all end in 10 minutes ( they have done the same thing in wales and Scotland but they are rising up now but you see the Irish never lay down to the tyrant and that is what the English toffs can’t get around their heads/ Ireland north and south belongs to the Irish and not England .
