midterm break: alexandria & cario, egypt!

our egyptian tour guide, bigga. seriously, her name is
bigga. look closely at her name tag. she sounds like
the costume designer from "the incredibles" and is
probably the same height as her too.

a mosque in alexandria.

an egyptian mcdonalds. their bigmacs probably taste
different from ours seeing as pigeons are their main
source of meat. needless to say, i did not eat any meat
while i was in egypt.

i was able to get a necklace of my name in hieroglyphics.

on the bus to cairo!

i saved this shirt til egypt day so that i could rep buffalo!

the pyramids.

the last time i was in africa, i rode a camel.
i learned my lesson and stayed away this time around.

walking like an egyptian. i look like a tourist,
so i may as well act like one too.

holly, me & tracy.

up close and personal.

i couldn't resist.

unfortunately, the day we were in egypt there was a
sand storm. that's why my hair is standing straight
up. i'm surprised the pictures came out this clear.

sphinx.

making a fool out of myself.

the high class boat we rode on the nile with. in the
bottom left hand corner is our bodyguard. each tour bus
had a bodyguard on the bus and a few police car escorts
surrounding each bus. it was pretty legit. haha.

7-up.

i love buffalo on the nile.

pigeon coop.

the entertainment on the boat.

we visited the largest mosque in cairo and this is the

view outside of it. if there wasn't a sand storm we
would have been able to see the pyramids. clearly
you can see how bad of a storm it was.
