We get woken up by the porter asking us if we are ready to come down with our stuff. Our alarm never went off and we are frantically running around getting things ready to go.
We get everything in to the cab in record time and head out to the airport.
The streets and the airport are deserted. It's such a change from the crush of people everywhere usually.
Our flight is pretty good. When we get off the plane we have a few visa dramas, turns out we got our visas too early and now they are all running out of time so we have to buy them all again. Stinky!
Our driver from the hostel picks up up and we go on a crazy car ride to the place we are staying. People in Cairo drive like mad men. I don't think there are any road rules and sometimes there are not even any lines in the streets. About an hour later we arrive and check in. We speak to a Chinese couple that are leaving for another hotel and we end up getting their room, which is great for us because we now have airconditioning! Wooo Hoooo. It is really hot here...like Africa hot man!
We set up a tour with George, the guy who owns the hostel. We are going to be gone for about 7 days touring around. Should be fun.
