Walk Like An Egyptian

Ok, so here are some really fun photos from my trip to Africa!

Yes...I actually saw and climbed on an in a wonder of the ancient world. Cool!


And I rode a camel through Luxor. Probably one of the coolest things I've ever done...



And finally, I will treat you all to a preview of Lis and me doing our belly dancing. Yes, apparently the belly dancers in Ancient Egypt were important enough to put on the wall. Next mission: find a belly dancing outfit...

The Old City



I've discovered it's not nearly as much fun as I hoped to be in the Holy Land taking a million pictures and not being able to show them to the loved ones back home (due to really SLOW internet connections, attaching pictures to e-mails is not possible).
So here are a few fun ones:


Me at Dome of the Rock (Those biblical scholars in the crowd may realize that I'm standing on Mt. Moriah!)

Me in the Orson Hyde Memorial Park (Well done, Grandpa Nelson!)

Stayed tuned for more documentation of my Middle East(and Northern Africa) Adventures! (And to put your mind at ease, yes, I did escape Pharaoh's Wrath.)
