Too bored to blog

Actually, that's a lie - but it rhymed. We've not been bored, but we've not been doing much exciting either. In addition to accomplishing appointments and other admin stuff (which do tend to be boring) we've mostly been quietly enjoying ourselves as a family... watching TV, playing games, going on walks, etc. Good for us, but not very interesting as blog fodder.

So... time for some "goodbye to Cairo" flashbacks!

We said goodbye to school...


We spent a lot of time hanging out with friends...
with all our stuff packed up, kids had to be creative for playtime fun...
We had a few more dance lessons...
and some watergun fights...
and, of course, there was a ton of swimming to fit in before we left.




We also went on a lovely boat ride with 'goodbye party' picnic on the water. It was a beautiful day to be out on the water!

And we went on a last minute trip to the Citadel, the most medieval place in Egypt, and al-Azhar Park, an amazing oasis of green in downtown Cairo. (The Tour Egypt links above are wonderful resources - please visit their sites and read a bit!). We had another clear and beautiful day for it - although it started to get hot by the end of the day.

Ok. Now... eventually... we do plan on doing more exciting and bloggable stuff, but for the near future, we are doing what I recommend that everybody do with their summer. Chill out and enjoy. :)
