Saturday 31-05 - Steps and Steeples and Sleep

The bus got to the Hotel at 8-30am. We checked in and freshened up. Since Rafik was going with some of the group on a day trip to Alexandria, we had a new guide. She was a young Egyptian woman, but wore short sleeves and no head covering, which is something we haven't seen a lot.

The group doing the Cairo day tour was only 7 people. We went to the step pyramid of Zosar. It was bigger and more impressive than I had expected it to be. The weather was slightly cooler than the previous day and there was a wind blowing. It was refreshing, but we were all tired and were glad this was the last temple.

Em and the step pyramid at Sakara

We moved on to the coptic church. boring. blah.

Lunch. kebabs

Sleep.

Waking up later that evening with a jacket on. Josh said I woke up mumbling something, then turned off the air-con and put a jacket on and went back to sleep. I remember nothing.

We had wanted to see everyone off, but were sleep by the time the Alexandria trip returned. We did get to see off Russel and Rianna though, who came to our room to say good bye. Ill miss all those people. They were all really nice.
