Friday was a day of rest. And air conditioning..

Denise and I got back to Ramses at about 3 in the morning and it was nearly 4 a.m. before we were in bed. So waking up at 11 isn’t as bad as sit sounds. I puttered around sorting dirty (filthy) clothes and drinking coffee, did the laundry, caught up on emails and then began posting blog entries and photos. I don’t think any internet connection could have been fast enough to make that job go quickly, but I did get pictures posted on Facebook, and several days of blog entries on the Des Moines Presbytery’s Joining Hands web site.

We got phone calls from Dr. Nabil and from Amr and from Carrie—all checking in to see how we were and what we were doing with our free day. Haidy and Mounir came by with ice cream and Haidy’s wedding pictures to share. We talked with Rabab and made plans to meet Saturday afternoon.

I called it quits about midnight and will continue posting blog entries in the morning.Sometimes lazy is good.
