Aaaaahhhh ..... Egypt

There is a smell to Egypt. It's wonderful, and I've missed. I'm sure it's something unromantic like dust, and gas fumes, but it's lovely to me.

We are staying at my grandmother's apt. The last time I was here I shared a bedroom with her. She's gone now. But, it is nice to be here in her apartment. There is a big picture of her and my grandfather's wedding picture. Wow !! Does she ever look young. It's pretty cool.

We visited with Mom's cousin in Paris, France during our stop over. It was kind of neat. We're thinking of stopping over for a couple of days on the way home. It's hard to do that though ... we never want to leave here at the end. I've been praying about it....I'm not sure what God wants to do with that.

I've drank almost two liters of water since landing. It's only been 5 hours. But, you just sweat it out .... who needs a bathroom ? :p.

It is the season for dates here. Mmmmmm.....the closest I've had to fresh dates are the frozen ones Mom picked up at church. These are even better.

Oh....I'm quite tired now. So, I'll type more tomorrow.
