Cairo Trip


The Egyptian Heart Team treated us to a trip to Cairo on Saturday. But we had to leave some of the our crew behind to keep an eye on the heart patients. Jennifer, Sam, Sabrina, and Dr. Mather deserve an extra pat on the back. Thanks guys.

First stop was the bathrooms. Not a bad view, huh?


They're serious about their tourism in Cairo.




"Hi!"

This is Penny, she's the new arrival taking Stan's spot as the anesthesiologist.


You can ride a donkey from the Sphinx to the Pyramids, but we rode the bus.


The Sphinx!

A school of orphan boys were also visiting the Sphinx. None of them needed heart surgery.


Mark is already adjusting to local traditions.



The Nile.





A Whirling Dervish.

I'm back after a not-so-clear headed 230cc session at 'Merge where this method of creating an areochamber was mentioned. East Vancouver may not be quite 3rd World yet, but resourcefulness is very much a part of existence here. Your photos regarding construction were very helpful!
Thank you
