Hussein Mosque in Cairo, next to Khan Kahlili, the tourist market and across from Al Azhar. Supposidly contains part of the body of the Prophet's grandson Hussein. Husband and I got our rings from a shop at the back of the mosque and exchanged them while eating popcorn on the other side.

Looking out over the rooftops of Cairo. Satallite tv definately exploded since I first went to egypt in 2003. We had it in our apartment when I was there in 05, and we had more channels than I do at home!

Sorry to break up the Morocco party I wanted to add some pics of Petra since its a contender for the New 7 wonders of the world. These arent my photos as I never got a chance to go there. It is by far the biggest regret of my trip We only had time to go to one place and I had to choose between Aqaba and Petra.....Aqaba won.

Hahahaha about the sarsur. But the ones we have in Texas are just as horrifying.

"Sarsur" is actually a common surname (or is it sarsurname ? ) in the West Bank.... they sure have some "interesting" family names there. Can you imagine going through life as Ahmed Cockroach ?

Ahmed Cockroach!!!

I have to concur about the roaches in Texas . . . I had one of those huge waterbugs attack me! They are sneaky . . . . and I hate it when you find one peaking at you out of the toilet! But flushing works wonder for getting rid of them, hehe!

oh wow i forgot about how they sell cooked corn on the cob on the street! Has anyone tried it? I can't eat corn unless it's been boiled and has tons of butter and salt on it.
