Wedding Bells in Cairo

The Egyptian weddings are held on every night of the week. We flew in and there were weddings, we came back from the Pyramids and there were more weddings, we were falling asleep last night and another wedding party went by. How do we know this you may ask? The wedding parties travel together in huge car caravans constantly honking in a rhythm - - … - - … and everyone joins in honking, if not joining the caravan too! To help the large group keep track of where they were going, one wedding had some young guys in the back of a pickup light up some flairs and hold them high as they were weaving in and out of traffic.

Just wanted to let you guys know I was thinking about you as we get ready for leave for Oregon next week. The Pirates are officially ready to take on Hood To Coast. We were trying to think of everyone who had dropped from the other MI team and came to the conclusion that traveling the world was a legitimate excuse for not participating:). I'd like to think you'll still be there in spirit. In the meantime keep filling us in on all of your adventures. We miss you!
