Still Here

Hello again,

We havent left yet still applying for visas and what not. Not really sure when we are leaving yet...not too fussed.

Nothing new to report really, we started riding horses to the pyramids at night time, which is amazing and scary as hell. I dont really understand how the horse can see in the dark, especially if I cant see anything. I had a phsyco horse yesterday, I picked it because it was the nicest looking and biggest. It quickly reared and chucked me off into a ditch, that was fun...and then it ran away from me, I switched horses after that...well first I got back on and it tried chucking me off again so I punched it in the head, lost the battle and decided I didnt want to die in a ditch on the way to the pyramids.

Anyhow, thats all for now, bye!

Back to Cairo

Hello team,

I successfully started a blog, without the help of GEORGE...so I hope this is working.

I arrived back to Cairo with horrible jet lag, but the weather aint bad so I cant complain!

I don't really have much to report here, this is more or less a practice run...so far I slept, ate a few times, walked around a bit, had a family dinner with Sam's family. (Didn't really understand a whole lot but I'm used to staring into space, haha)

Mostly they just force feed me, but there's nothing wrong with that either, I got three pieces of cake from various family members.

I also made crepes served with maple syrup for Sam's mom and brother. There was a lot of confusion about what maple syrup is made of and what its purpose is...(more or less sugar....and it tastes delicious...)

Well that's all for now love all of you!!
