Days 1 & 2 – Friday – Saturday, March 8-9: Flight from U.S. to Egypt, Hotel in Cairo
The day of departure finally came. We boarded our various flights to Cairo today. Most in the group flew through Istanbul with the rest of us through Europe. We arrived at the Cairo Airport where we went through the customary Passport & Visa procedures. Our Meryland Tours agent, Mohab, helped us through the process. We enjoyed dinner together before retiring at the Sheraton Hotel along the Nile River. We are all looking forward to this “Granddaddy” trip of a lifetime that covers Egypt, Jordan, and Israel.
“Wow, it’s hard to believe we are in Cairo, Egypt tonight. Our flights into Cairo went well. Although tired, we are excited to begin this “Granddaddy Tour” to Egypt, Jordan, and Israel.”
Day 3 – Sunday, March 10: Sakkara, the Pyramids, and Sphinx, Egyptian Museum
