On the Border

Posted September 15th, 2008 by Cara

So today, at the Fulbright in-country orientation, I received grand news. There are, in fact, two Mexican food restaurants and Cairo...and they're maybe pretty good? I was so excited! One of them is called On the Border so I was curious if the American On the Border food chain has expanded internationally so typed "on the border cairo" into google search engine. The top result? "Report: Egypt uncovers 3 tunnels on Gaza border - Israel News ..." Sigh. The orientation and the following Iftar up at the citadel complete with a puppet performance, traditional sufi dancing and live music was fun. Justin took some cool pictures of the dancers lit by show lights so he'll have to post those soon.

Wow...aren't ya'll the international travelers! So what bring's ya to Egypt? I'm sorry that I missed yer call Justin when ya'll were passing through Montana. I really wish we could have gotten together and met. Ya'll really need to meet my wife, I think our families could form a nice friendship! I regret loosing touch with both of you and really miss grouping time with Justin. Please keep me posted as to what's going on in ya'lls lives. I suspect Shannon and I will be in Montana for a while longer as there's a nice "day job" in the NWS office here which I have my eyes on when someone retires 1.5 years from now. So please feel free to visit if you ever need an "exotic" vacation destination. Now that I know ya'll can rough it at the camp site, maybe we need to plan a Yellowstone of Glacier camping trip. Anywho...keep in touch and be safe over there!

post photos soon please!!

Can't wait to see the sufi dancing! Very amused by how much Arizonans/ Arizonians ( ?? not sure which is right) miss Mexican food when they are away from home--- hope they have really good bean burritos for Cara!!!
