Team Egypt is off on Friday afternoon (March 2nd) from O’Hare to Cairo via Frankfurt. Cairo was hit today with a dust storm, which generally lasts for about 4-5 days, so will be arriving to a Cairo that looks like the picture shown above.  Nevertheless, we are really excited to land on Saturday and meet our wonderful in-country team: Hani, Britton, and Rosalie, and to begin our exploration of Egypt.

Fear not, we will be sure to update the blog every day with schedules, pictures, and anecdotes.  Starting on Friday/Saturday, our travel days, you will see exciting pictures, such as Rob sleeping…
