Yes we have arrived ! After landing in Denver we took off for London where Eileen was frisked due to Ipod in pocket....and what a frisk it was ! We then loaded into a 500+ seater Egypt Air filled with many nationalities and only a few Americans. Our tour company picked us up and gave us a mini tour as we dodged cars, pedestrians, and more and more and more and more cars on the way to our hotel. WHAT an experience ! This place is awake 24-hours and if it wasn't dark, you would never know it is nearly 1am Monday...wait a minute didn't we leave Saturday at 2pm from Oakland ?!?! We have already been asked if we are American actresses in the elevator ... and in our tired looked condition that's a sorry state of afairs for Hollywood ! This place is a happening hotel. (but don't worry Dad and John...we are safe - we just will not leave each other's side). Tomorrow we are off to cross the street (that's going to be interesting) to go to THE Eqyptian Museum. Tuesday we have a scheduled tour of the Pyramids of Giza and more.....looking forward to it all. We will post after Tuesday's adventure. We are here until Thursday 11:30pm...and then off to Tanzania. Good night from the tired sisters in Cairo. xo
