Egypt

Egypt! We arrived in Cairo and found a cheap hostel. (Our cheapest hostel was $1.75 each per night!) That night we took a boat ride on the Nile River and then the next day caught a subway out to the Pryamids. From there we caught a bus out to the Sinai and snorkeled the Red Sea!! The coolest thing ever! Then from there we caught a ride up to the Israel border! Check it out. Sorry the order is a little Whack...


Rhett and the Red Sea


This picture is cool because there is just a little hole in the middle of this reef off the coast. So Rhett just jumped down into what you would think would only be a foot of water... then disappeared... Pretty Cool..

I think this guys name was Ali... if not, what could fit better?


Pryamids in Giza

We take what we can get







I tried to steal this guys camel... but then got a little spooked cause I couldnt get it to slow down! I had to just aim for a hill so it would finally slow down....

I would have loved to hear Rhett laughing as the camel ran away with you Austin! That picture cracked me up.
