I have arrived at home, safe and sound. I left the hotel in Cairo at 5AM Monday,Cairo time which means that I left at 9pm Sunday night and arrived in Houston at 10:36pm Monday, Houston time. I have the swollen feet and ankles to prove it.
My first stop off the plane was the bathroom and it was very nice to have toilet paper in any stall you choose which you didn't have to pay the beggar women who sit at the doors of the public restrooms and hand out little bits of toilet paper for money. I'll talk more on that later.
My adventures in Egypt have come to an end and I have many stories to tell. I will collect my thoughts, organize the almost 900 pictures I have taken, and get them out to you all as soon as I can. For now, however, I am ready for some sleep. Ed's boss advised him that the best thing to do on these long flights is to not sleep and then take a sleeping pill when you get home(since it is really 8AM on Tuesday for my body)to make certain you sleep and it should only take one day to recover. We will see how I do at work in the morning. Ed will be coming in at 2ish on Tuesday so we will see how he does too. He had not been feeling well when I left him in the hotel Monday morning.
Goodnight all! It is great to be back.
