Friday night the Staff - old and new - were taken by the Administration out for dinner to a place called Al-Azhar Park. It was a magical breathtaking place... music... excellent food... decor incredible. (See more of my pictures on Flickr.)Saturday we went for a walking tour, checked out some stores, then ended up with dinner. There are Mosques are on every other corner -- amazing buildings.
On Sunday - School events........Everyone (Staff and Administration) are so congenial and help us with presentations of life in the Middle East, Cairo and Egypt specifically, and life at the school. It is a 10 hour day from when we leave at 7:00 am till when we get home at 5:00 pm!! I have a wonderful helper "A lady in blue" who helps me in my class all the time. My class looks great right now. I'll have only 5 pupils!!!
I learned where to go to get my hair done..for massages.... cleaning lady...etc...
First day of classes is Sunday, September 3rd.

Hey Marilyn, Glad to see you've made it safe and sound to Egypt. I read your blog every couple of days. How's the food? Is the City as crowded as it appears on t.v.?
Take care,
Randy T
