This will be my last entry on my blog for my trip to Egypt. I left Cairo this morning at 7:30 (12:30 US time). Sherif's driver took me to the airport and he speaks no English . We left Sherif's house at 4:30 a.m. and we did not know which terminal to go to at the airport. We went to Terminal 1 and then to Terminal 2 and back to Terminal 1. Our flight left on time to Paris, France. We arrived in Paris about 11:10 (their time). We departed Paris at 1:30 and flew for over 10 hours arriving in Atlanta at 5:30 (our time). The flight from Atlanta to Columbia (due to leave at 8:30) finallly left at 10:05 and I arrived home about 11:15. But the trip ended with its usual chaos (often like it begins) with NO LUGGAGE. It seems no one on board our flight had their luggage loaded on the plane. It should arrive sometime tomorrow! I appreciate everyone who read the blog and kept up with my trip and I hope you learned some things and got to experience even a bit of the experiences I had. Thanks to Sherif and Helen for hosting me in their home!
