Africa - Egypt - Cairo - Have landed in Cairo...
 |
First night on the Nile The romance of the felucca; don't touch the water and bring your own food and drink |
 |
'Fishin on the Nile I'm not eating what they catch am I? |
 |
Lots of feluccas And to think I would be the only one... |
 |
It's sheesha time!! Amazing how even a non smoker can enjoy a sheesha from time to time... |
 |
View from Timber's patio There is some green in Cairo! Keeping in mind that Timber lives on the 4th floor, these trees are huge!! |
 |
Dish City The song about wanting MTV pops into my head when I see this! I guess everybody wants to watch a bit of Oprah now and then! |
 |
Timber's Roof If it hadn't been such a smoggy evening, apparently I would have been able to see the Pyramids in between the 3 towers. |
 |
The Desert Edge Looking back at the city from the desert |
 |
And they're off! Crazy kids! Running off into the desert like that! Timber and Yvonne may be just tiny pinpoints but that's only 'cuz I was too slow with my camera! |
 |
Cracked Earth Just a reminder, it's pretty hot out here |
 |
It's me!! I decided my white skin wasn't up for a photo in the bright daylight! And to proove I really did climb up the edges of the desert, hanging your feet is always a great feeling |
 |
The big picture The dot in the distance is Timber crying out for water and sanity |
 |
Almost there! Every step taken in this heat takes more energy than words can say. This is just before the end... |
 |
For all the gardeners out there... This is why you must always have faith!! |
 |
The Citadel I'll squeeze a photo of me in every now and then to proove that I really am doing this trip! |
 |
The outskirts of the mosque The citadel has several mosques on the grounds, this was just the outer edges. The detail in the stonework and every artistic corner is staggering |
 |
Ibrahim charges A chap named Ibrahim who led the Egyptian army, and I thought it looked pretty cool with the mosque behind |
 |
The lions backs 2 lions always seem to be protecting something |
 |
Rubbish Even the rubbish/garbage container is ornately decorated! |
 |
From Cairo Tower Yes, they're the pyramids poking through! Can you imagine their size not in the modern day? |
