Hi again. Yesterday I ventured forth in the morning for a walk and to get some groceries. I also managed to get out later to attend the Thursday evening service at Ma'adi Community Church - they sure have lively services. It was approximately 43 degrees out, but according to some locals here, it can only officially get to 41 degrees, since otherwise they have to send all the government workers home with pay. Dale arrived here at around 2:30am for the first time in over a week. We still managed to get up this morning and find the Community Service Association, which I had meant to attempt to get to all week (http://www.livinginegypt.org/). It wasn't so difficult now that we are getting familiar with the crazy intersecting streets, so we carried on and found the MGM (Ma'adi Grand Mall). Seeing as it is Friday, most stores were closed so we stopped for a coffee and went back home. We are thinking of heading downtown Cairo for dinner tonight, so we'll let you know how that goes.

Hey you guys!! I just figured it out that we can leave comments. You're in for it now!!! Dale, you look far too tanned to convince me you are actually working! And Laurel, you don't look at all like you have been sick. Too big of a smile!! Good for you guys. Great photo. Now, that map of the city is another thing. Hope you brought your GPS!! Love Judy
