Hello all, I have made it to Cairo Egypt. This will be a short post as the internet is slow and expensive in the hotel! (Got to save my money!)
Cairo is not what I expected: my senses are on overload! It is busy 24 hours a day, there are so many people, the pollution and smoke is extremely intrusive (I feel like I have been smoking non-stop). But I love it. The people are friendly, helpful and just trying to make money! I have taken the taxi's many times (that is terrifying as cars drive wherever they want and there are no seatbelts), been to Khan al Khalili the bazaar which is miles of stalls and tried authentic Egyptian food (so yummy!).
So I start my tour tomorrow and it will be 23 days. Hopefully, I can find a cheap internet cafe and a few hours to spend and I will post pictures for you. But it may have to wait (I definately thought the connection would be better!)
I miss everyone back home and will talk to you soon (as soon as I can)!
Love, Lisa
