First Day Walkabout

We had planned to sleep most of the morning, but couldn't. So we walked around the busy streets surrounding our hotel. I'm told, this is the nicest part of Cairo, with and schools and embassies.






Just a few images to share:
The street outside the hotel

A local place to eat











A not exactly local place to eat

A mosque on the Nile
And lots of police all around.
At 12:30 a Presbyterian minister who teaches New Testament at the Evangelical Seminary in Cairo will be picking us up for lunch and a tour. I'll be amazed if he finds this place.
