Egypt: Cairo, Giza, Alexandria, Luxor
It's been awhile! Sorry for the extreme delay in posting anything -- it took me a while to formulate a blog post for Egypt because there was just so much I wanted to talk about, and when I finally got my blog post to where I wanted it to be, I tried to publish it and instead it deleted almost everything. I did some soul searching and decided that rather than trying to replicate the blog post, I would post what saved originally (which really doesn't cover a lot, we don't even make it to Cairo in this post) and then just put up a lot of pictures and let them tell the story. So, without further ado... Friday morning on October 6th, bright and early at 5 AM, I departed from home with Jenna, Natalie, and Elijah, my traveling partners. We caught a 6:30 AM bus from Tel Aviv to Eilat (the closest town to the Taba land border crossing with Egypt), slept most of the way down, and arrived around 12 PM. We had to take the most roundabout route to get to the Taba border crossing
