Just a quickie to let you know we are successfully
in the Med. We got spat out this afternoon. What a relief, and are
finally on our way to Israel. Should be comfortably in a Marina there
tomorrow evening. Lots of boats here!!! Masses of fishing boats which
are very rare in the Red Sea.
Had a good time in Cairo. Although hated the city
and people tried to cheat us everywhere. "Camel ride, five pounds" we had
a brilliant time at the pyramids and the Museum which was just fantastic.
Fairly poorly labeled and laid out but the stuff in there will knock your
socks off, especially the mummie room (Ramses II) and Tutenkamen's stuff.
We all drooled in there for six straight hours. Although Neill
unfortunately spent some of his time in the toilet. Anyhow, Suez was OK,
and the canal transit was a piece of cake - two days, two pilots and both
of them were great. We got very lucky.
More later - love from all - Sarah
