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
Holy!! SO many adventures, I am sure we will hear all about when you get home! I really can’t wait. We have been worried about you, since all that bombing started!
Love you, and be safe….oh and have fun, too!
You are reaaly a lucky man to have these adventures! I was worried about the bombing there, but looks like I should’ve been worried more about the traffic! Good luck finding a better hotel – and maybe you should save some of your journal papers in case there’s no TP! Be safe. Have a Happy New Year!!
I am so glad to hear from you and so happy you are safe! I will never forget going into an European airport bathroom and finding shredded newspaper! Love the memories! These are the days my friend. All is well here and Happy New Year! Love, Momma & Papa
one day you’ll thank me
You should know that I live vicariously through you! Wow what a great time! Glad to hear your are safe, thought about you every time I watched the news. I can’t wait for the next adventure we…I mean YOU go on! Bj
