Arrival in Cairo
Entry 1 of 44 | show all | print this entry |
Well, I am on my second day in Egypt.
No matter how many
places I go, it never seems to get any easier. The first day, after I
landed here in Cairo, I was quite tired from the flight, plus not being
able to sleep more than a few hours over the night due to the reversal
in time. I basically wandered around for the day, trying to get a feel
for things - the "rules", people, road crossing procedures, getting my
cards refused from ATM's! Ate lunch with a couple of nice Egyptian
girls who offered me a seat at their table ;-) Met a guy from the US,
so dragged him out to the night market in the evening.
Last
night I still didn't sleep more than 3 hours, but got up and went out
the to pyramids and saw the Sphinx! Verry cool. I really wanted to
scramble the pyramids, but there were guards with really big black
guns, so I decided not to. I'm not sure a pyramid would count as a peak
anyhow.
Anyhow, I'm starting to get things settled down here.
Have the ATM thing worked out, so have some cash, and am feeling more
comfortable fitting in on the streets. People thus far have been very
friendly and helpful.
