So today was a day for buying last minute gifts, wrapping up what we had learned, saying goodbyes and jumping onto our next flight to Cairo, Egypt! So I did buy a couple of things and got ready for our 4 and a half hour flight. It was a pretty uneventful flight and trip. Well we did fly Air Maroc though. It does make for an interesting flight. Sometimes the people have trouble finding their seats and safety demos are optional (jk). They pile you on these little buses to take you out to the planes and everyone just loads all at once, So there really isn’t much organization at all. Then halfway through the flight they sold perfumes and cigarettes. Plus, they tired to feed me raw fish again! But we finally made it to Cairo at around 1 in the wee hours of the morning. We bought our visas, cleared customs and got our bags in no time! Dr. Solomon was there to greet us and provide us entertainment on the ride to our hotel. He is a very energetic man! Especially, at one o’clock in the morning. He gave us this passionate and full of energy speech about the dairy buffalos and flying herds. In fact, even though it was early in the morning, we were all ready to go look at some buffalo! It is actually pretty humorous that he could take a bunch of jet-lagged tired beyond belief students and get them pumped up to see these flying herds a the time of night (morning). I can tell Dr. Solomon will be a fun guide for the rest of our stay.
The next post will be all about the Dairy Buffalo and flying herds. So don’t worry it things are a little unclear. Then next after that come the pyramids and camel rides! So now I am actually almost caught up! We visited the buffalo stuff today and we are off to experience the Sphinx and Pyramids tomorrow!
It will be an exciting day! Here is a teaser picture of the Nile River from our hotel balcony. Can you say five star hotel? It is so nice!!
