Hello Ard Scoil, Aghada, Friends and Brigid

Hi everyone,

Niamh has just shown me how to post a message here! We are both really happy to read your wishes of good luck. Thank you all. Follow the 'Our Journey' link on the website to read how we are doing.

Cairo is crazy. We are staying in a rooftop hostel in the centre of town. It costs about Euro 1.50 each per night. Food is also very cheap and very different. We are eating lots of falafel, kushari, fuul, aubergines and tahini. The restaurants are often just a little kitchen on the side of a side street.

No bungee jumping yet!

Keep in touch

Cairo

Hello World.

We're back in Cairo again after our Sinai Adventure. One mountain. One set of dives. One bout of food poisoning (I will never look at Kofta the same way again). We're here to sort out our Ethiopian visa, to see the pyramids, to update the website, to write articles and to get ready for the journey south.

It's great to be back in Cairo. It felt like coming home, arriving to the bus station in the night time. Not many westerners that I've met like the place but I think it's electric.

We would love to hear from you all at home.

Ciao.
