Egypt Man…(by Karla)

Alan said it best “Egypt Man…” Egypt was probably our most challenging country, which was such a shame because the sights are so incredible with the Giza Pyramids, Valley of the Kings, Abu Simbel, Nile River…I could go on and on. We did have fun, but also a lot of challenges with the people, tourist prices and unable to trust most of everything we were told by Egyptian people. Other people had totally different experiences in Egypt, but our was the most trying…I consider Alan and I fairly relax, patient people, but it took a lot more patience….than we ever expected.

Here are some of our favorite things about Egypt.

Staying with Lara’s Egyptian family – Boudy and Mother Su. We also got to meet Boudy’s niece, she was such a doll.

Learning about the Islamic way in the Al-Azhar Mosque

Spending the night on the Feluca and meeting our new friends JJ and Duk Yu.

Picking up Mika from the airport…and heading to see the pyramids. Not only seeing the pyramids and being one of the last group out of the park, let’s just say it was my most adventurous cab ride from the entire trip!

Hiking Mt. Sinai and see the sunrise.

Doing a jumping shot off of a boulder down the path Moses took from Mt Sanai.
