All year I have been wanting to get a picture of this fellow delivering bread. This is the street I cross daily to get to my afternoon class on the Greek campus. (Crossing the street is like a game of Frogger with real vehicles and me being the frog trying not to get squashed.) I see this guy zooming down the street balancing the bread on his head with one hand on the handlebars, dodging the traffic and then turning down the side street. He seems to appear every half hour or so with a new batch of bread. Amazingly, I have never seen bread spilled all over the street, which is a real testament to his bicycling and balance skills.
