Balcony View in Giza

Another Balcony View

In remembering all the movies and literature of Egypt that I had seen before, I imagined a dry, hot country landscaped with nothing but sand, pyramids, crypts, and stone houses. Oh was I wrong! Lush greenery and amazing landscapes exists throughout the country. It was interesting how from the airplane view that "squares" of greenery existed almost in a checker board fashion alternating from lush greenery to golden sand. Which by the way, the Egyptian sand feels like silk in your hands.
