Cairo -- the first days

I have arrived in Cairo.

From its crumbling european style apartment buildings to the Nile running briskly through the center of town, Cairo has a charm that lures me in with its resemblance to some sort of proving ground for civilizations.

Already I've encountered a "Pharoanic staircase" -- ie a rickety spiral staircase only barely attached to its foundation, and a Little Donkey, ie the best fuul and tameeya place around according to Abdo.

Adventure, part 5 or 6, is already underway.

Hey Annika,

Wishing you a great journey ahead this year. All the best for you and your team (and your blog too).

If you're considering coming back to the very cool Scandinavian bliss of Finland let me know - it's where I'm headed.
