Church Yes, the church was beautiful. I was said to find out that no pictures were allowed inside. While I was admiring the church my friends were let into the Library (off-limits to tourists) in the Monastery, because a friend of ours recommended finding a Monk he knew. Needless to say I was extremely jealous
St Catherines Monastery Hello
I agree the climb up the mountain is beautiful, did you not think the Monastery was also peaceful and beautiful, you did not mention the Church. I was there in the beginning of Dec. found the area breath taking.
Enjoy your travels

Move Back Home! Hey champ,
You should come back home and move to DC with me when I graduate in May. We can finally be roommates. I might even have a line on a few jobs you might be interested in. I have a friend who works on Rural Housing Issues and I think you and her would get along great. Just recently she was hiring too.
There are jobs in DC if you know where to look, so I'm searching too. I sadly do not want to be a personal assistant or a scheduler with a college education.
I really do still want to visit, but the cost is somewhat prohibitive. I might be more amenable to meeting someplace in Europe this summer, maybe with Kels in tow. Let me know what you are upto.

My view on the conflict I have lived in Egypt my whole life but my father is actually a palestine refuges who was brought up in jordan because of this ongoing conflict. Even though i may feel sympathy to who i could consider to be my home, i feel that by keeping the borders closed, egypt have done the right thing. By opening any borders not only will u have many refugees into egypt's suffering economy but also, the repercutions this would have on the egyptian israeli peace but also egyptian american relations, which to be frank the egyptian goverment and economy can not do without at the moment.
hi! Hey Rob, the pyramids look amazing! And the sphinx...i recognize it from some movies I've seen. It's good to hear everything is going well for you in Cairo.
