So I just left the downstairs neighbors house who stuffed my flatmates and I clear to the top! Homemade Egyptian food is the bomb! (good stuff: )) In fact I hadn't had any yet and it reminded me of Turkey which was a month and a half ago now. Where does the time go?!? I went to the Pharm. and got some meds I don't know...but I took them and the tummy is a bit better now. Just in time for the feast! Still digesting funny but there are doctors who specialize in stomach stuff right around the corner. I still can't believe that the meds were only 30cents! It is amazing.
I realized that I am very homesick these last few days but after seeing everyone...I don't know what I would be doing so I am content with studying Arabic. By the way the craziest product I have ever seen belongs to the Egyptians...or Arabs in general. "Be White" It is a cream that acctually lightens the skin! The picture is of a woman with olive skin and then an after pic with white skin! SubhanAllah! Very sad. There are these guys that come around the neighborhood and yell "bakiya" out really loud all the time too. They pick up recycles (anything including a kitchen sink) and the cotton candy man has an air horn and the gas can guys bang on the empty tanks. My point...Cairo can never and should never be called a quite place! ha ha.
Still haven't made around Egypt very much...I think I need to at some point...I am also having troubles deciding when to push off. I think I know that the middle east section of my journey is coming to a close (at some point) and therefor don't really want to leave yet. I'm quite sure I'll enjoy the rest but...I really do like it here.
