Wrapping up
So I’ve made it to Cairo via Amman Jordan. Cairo is crazy. After a place like Israel, Cairo is so tourist driven. My experience so far is that everyone is trying to scam you and I’ve had to yell at my share of Arabs already.
It is something rather humbling to stand at the foot of the oldest structure on earth and have it be enormous and looming over you. At one point we just sat and looked, it’s all you can do.
The hotel we’re in is something of am adventure as well, I let Mikale pick it and she found one for only 12 USD! Bargains galore eh? Well let me tell you, turns out there are certain amenities I’ve grown accustomed to, like locks and free toilet paper. This place is a disaster.
we’re moving out tonight cause I just can’t bring myself to relax in this room. And when I’m not on am iPhone I’ll write more.
Anyway. I’ll hit the Egyptian museum today and a few other sights then new years eve is reserved for sitting in my hotel (hopefully nicer than this one) room and writing in my journal, then new years day I’ll be flying home.
Thanks for all the comments and quick emails, it’s great to hear from people as much as possible while your out and away.
Enjoy
