Cairo
We had an early flight from Israel to Egypt. Because of the recent Israel antiterrorist activities plane was empty.
All we knew we are going to muslim country were jews are not welcome. But we didn't care.
Plane landed in Cairo international airport. We were very surprised when we saw armed people serounding our plane. Our flight attendant explained it is for extra security.
In airoport our travel agent met us and took us to one of the best hotels in the city on the bank of Nile. Shepherds hotel was build in 18's and located right next to US embassy.
Cairo one of the biggest city (about 20 million). It is very safe for tourists. You ca see army everywhere. Travel industry one of the biggest parts of the economy.
there are about 80% Muslim and 20 Christians living together without any problems. One of our guides - Muslim was singing Jewish traditional song and when we asked them how he knows the he replied - these great songs belong to all people. What the difference he said you and me we all have red blood. If you don’t talk about my god and I dont talk about your god we will all live happy.
In the morning we were going to see pyramids
