FROM THE SANDS OF EGYPT...

Howdy!!! from Egypt... Our last BIG

Day is now a memory... We are back

at our Hotel awaiting our departure

time... We will be leaving the hotel

for the Cairo Airport at 2am Egypt

Time, and flyin' out of Cairo at 5:20am.

It's about 8:30pm on Saturday eve.,

so I'm not sure whether I'll bother

with trying to sleep before we leave...

We'll be flyin' out with 8 others from

our Group... Dave & I have made some

great new Forever Friends...

Below, you'll see some of the pics

I took today of the Pyramids and the

sphinx... I was surprized by how near

to the city they lie... I wasn't quite as

awed by them as I expected to be...

To be honest, they didn't strike me as

much as the Red Woods of the West

Coast did a few back... I'm glad I can

say that I've seen them up close...

But, without a doubt, JERUSALEM

was the best part of the trip for me...

We went to the Cairo Museum this

afternoon... it's more like a flea-market

than a museum~ Really! It's dusty &

dirty... It's full of wonderful things~

but the place needs some work...
