As you travel away from the cities and get into the country, you will often encounter farm animals on the roads with you. We have seen herds of sheep on the road in both South America as well as Ireland, which makes sense as it an easy way to move them to market. For obvious reasons, you will often find cows wandering the streets in India and you simply have to make your way around them. In some occasions they are pulling carts, but other times they are just going along for the ride like some of the cows that we saw in Egypt. Over time, many of us have become removed from the animals that help sustain our lives, but these are subtle reminders that we are all part of the same world. So as you travel to rural places, always remember to share the road with our four-legged or even feathered friends that are on a journey of their own.
