The title question regarding the number of Mohamed's in Egypt, could be asked of several names of course. It just struck me that after just a couple of weeks in Egypt I had met at least 4 or 5. I asked one of the local tour leaders' how many he knew. His response of 40 wasn't really a shock. Having to remember each Mohameds' fathers' name for further identificatiojn might be difficult for people like me though. Not a good country to be bad with names that's for sure!!
And on with the travels. Having spent the last day in Cairo racing around the museum, it was nice to stop and watch the sunset. We stoppped right on a bridge and within a couple of minutes a cup of tea was offered to us all. It feels as though I could be travelling on the moon and an Egyptian will have set up a stand to offer me a 'cupa. Although it's not quite the UK 'cupa I've become so used to! Looking below the bridge there was an island called Abu Dahab, everything on it seemed so serene. Donkeys trotting along the edges, farmers working the fields.
