Hanging out in Cairo

October 23, 2010 by Dave5 Comments

At the moment I'm sitting in sleeper train on our long transiberian journey - not much to do here so we are chugging the vodka. Actually this is the overnighter from Cairo to Luxor. This is doing it in real style - a private suite for 2 people, AC controls per suite and the calming rocking motion that you can only get on a train will quickly put us to sleep - oh and the 32 hours it took to get here from Cali will certainly help. With not much … [Read more...]

Back to Europe

October 21, 2010 by Dave1 Comment

Arrived in 4C temps and rain at the Frankfurt airport. Its not even mid Autumn and temps are already frightfully chilly. I was here last month and landed to sunshine and warm temps. Not so now. The FRA airport is like a big city - we drove around in a bus after getting off the plane for a long while.

And if a mountain is mentioned it is always Mt. Kilimanjaro. This book debunks any myths that Africa is flat and or completely covered in jungles. Pictures of jagged snow and ice covered mountains could be taken anywhere in the world. Mountains of Africa … [Read more...]
