Day 1 in Cairo (revisited)
So I’m putting together collections of photos from the trip. In an attempt to not overwhelm you (and myself) I’ll do one of these every few days highlighting a day (or maybe just a portion of the day depending on how many photos I took that day).
This first day consists of two albums.
The trip from the airport which shows a lot of the city (Cairo is a city of 20 million people), some billboards and roads. The murals were along the walls of a military academy which was one of the first places we passed. This also contains my first glimpses of the pyramids and the Nile (if it’s wet it’s probably the Nile).
This has some shots of the grounds of the Mena House Oberoi hotel, my room, the view of the pyramids during the day and night and my first can of Coca-Cola in Egypt.
You can view these photos here.
These are fascinating to me becauseI have never been anywhere even near there, so to see photographs that someone has actually taken is quite amazing.
Here from Michele’s Alphabet Game tonight.
