For years I've wanted to go to see the Pyramids and float on the Nile. It was most appropriate to read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho on this leg of my journey! Like his character Santiago, the shepherd in search of his Personal Legend, my trip is fulfilling a dream. I'm glad that I had the chance to accomplish this part of the dream.
However, I'm also glad that I only spent a week in Egypt (because my Dad was concerned about the area). I could not have withstood the heat one more minute! After the madness that is Cairo, I feel I am better prepared for Beijing and New Delhi. Also, I will never think of New York City the same way again. I have a completely new perspective on time and space!
