Itinerary


Seems like I have said I was going to post this forever ago. Well here it is.


Thursday, March 5 -- Leave Anchorage at 8:10 AM
Arrive Seattle 8:56 PM (don't ask it's a long story).

Friday, March 6 -- Leave Seattle at 7:45 AM

Saturday, March 7 -- Arrive London 6:30 AM (very tired I would guess).

There are no firm plans for our stay in London yet but I'm sure we will find something to do.

Tuesday, March 10 -- Depart London for Cairo
Arrive Cairo 8:45 PM.

Will be met by our host family in Cairo and transported to Port Said, about 2 hours north, and this will be our home base.

On Wednesday and Thursday we will spend our time getting to know one another and the Eshak family will be showing us around Port Said.

On Friday we will go to Alexandria. We will visit the Alexandria Library, Montaza, and other places yet to be named.

Saturday and Sunday we will spend in Cairo and Giza. We will take in the pyramids, ride a camel, go to the national museum, the Cairo tower, have a trip on or a dip in the Nile don't know which. And according to our guide many other things that will be a surprise.

On the 16th, Monday, we will go to Elfaioum and see Elsawaki and do other things.

On Tuesday we will return to Port Said and rest for a few hours before we go to Nardeen's favorite place in all of Egypt.

The 18th through the 20th we will spend in Sharm El Shik on the Red Sea. No schedule was given except that it would be a surprise for us. We really do like surprises and I know we will have a wonderful time with our hosts.

On the 21st we will return to Port Said and the rest of our time is open to do as we see fit. I'm sure there will be many places we would enjoy returning to and this will be our opportunity.

It is a busy schedule. We will try to keep you posted on all the developments along the way. More tomorrow.
