EGYPT ADVENTURE 1999....Day 1





The day is Jan. 29th. I flew from Pearson International in Toronto to Frankfurt, Germany. The flight was delayed in Toronto for about an hour or two, due to ice and snow. It took approximately 7 or 8 hours to get fom Toronto to Frankfurt. Because of the delay, I missed my connecting flight to Cairo by about an hour. I finally managed to leave Germany 6 hours later. The flight to Cairo took about 5 hours.

When I finally got to the Oasis Hotel in Cairo, it was 12:30 at night. I paid for a single room, but got stuck with my roomate for the tour (Grant), who also paid for a single room for the night before the tour started. He was sleeping when I arrived. He wasn't amused and neither was I.
