Cairo

Made it to Cairo! If you look at the map it's a short straight shot from Amman to Cairo, but to do that you have to fly over Israel, which we didn't do. We flew southwest to Aqaba then northwest to Cairo.

Was met by my guide just before immigration and he took me through there, after which we picked up my bag and went through customs, then out to the curb where our driver picked us up. I inadvertently insulted my driver by putting on my seatbelt. The tour company has nicknamed him Vin Diesel because of how he drives. First thing you notice about traffic here, besides the volume ( number of cars and all the beeping) is that the lines have no meaning. The other thing you notice is the air pollution.Weiterlesen
