At the going down of the sun behind the ancient pyramids of Egypt I rejoice in this Middle East journey.  We leave at the end of this day and I may not have the chance to write again.  Our plan is to take a ferry along the Nile River.  Our flight leaves very late tonight.  I bid farewell to my unexpected friends throughout this region.  They will always be in my heart and prayers.  And, as for my book, I suspect it will require more expeditions before it is completed.  Adieu.

Pyramids

Hi from the Pyramids of Egypt!  
     Today we took a taxi to see the famous Pyramids and Sphinx of Egypt.  The camel ride was a tradition we couldn't pass up. Pictures never do things like this justice.  These ancient edifices are spectacular!
