Greetings from Egypt

I arrived to Cairo yesterday (Saturday) morning after a long flight from LA. The travel went all well.
I was pleasanly surprised to see the great number of American college students coming to Cairo for their winter break. On my flight from JFK to Cairo, there were at least three groups from colleges in Indiana and Wisconson going on study travel to Egypt. One was for credit as part of a class and two were simply experiential learning with no college credits accompanied by two faculty. In fact, the flight was full with many Americans coming on their own to discover Egypt.

The weather in Cairo is very pleasant - sunny in the upper 50 during the day, cooler in low 40 by night. So bring some worm clothing.
See in Egypt on Jan. 8

Some flight details Trail mix ok

Hi everyone. Just a note that we have three and a half days and nights before setting off for New York and Egypt Air. Remember that 4 am arrival is important so that if there are security delays or long lines to check luggage, we will have time to take care of everything. And, I called Delta to ask about our bringing food through security--no liquid, no jells, that's it, so trail mix, almonds and such are a go! I have our ribbons to help us id our luggage more easily. See y'all soon.
