First steps in Cairo
It's 8 hours since I got the first leg (the right) in the Cairo streets. I do not know where to start ... ..
The fact that everything is sand - where there is no houses? I have not seen that before. Miracle over all miracle that the entire population is not killed in traffic last year ..:-) For Dear Turks and Greeks. You are now on the second and third place. The Egyptians speed, hoot, shot moore and especially impressive with millimeter passage of anything they come across in the highest possible speed. I strongly belive that "Mustafa & Accident & repair & Co be a million enterprise.
The bike and trailer is on mye on hospice room, and looks looking for camels and Indiana Jones. Do it even if I know that the camel rides with sunburned tourists up at the Pyramids (45 min from downtown) and the Indiana J. has gone home after the last film. And as I stared a little at very low prices, get new scents in the nose from the third quarter, and is impressed that things can be sold so cheap, that's when I spot a new thing for a norse.
The Goldsmith on the corner with Arabic script over the door has a guard. I have seen that before, but no a goldsmith guard with a machine guns.
There is a lot and I dont have a good enough pen do Egypt for you. Just want to say that Norway has a history that cind of starts (in the books) from the year 800 and these guys started 4-5000 years before that.
Thank you for reading.
