Spring Break Adventure, April 2014

April launched with Liz's arrival in Beirut, gathered momentum with our visit the reef in Sharm El Sheikh, and reached a crescendo in Cairo at Scheller's wedding reception.  

Liz's first wish? To soak her feet in the salty Mediterranean Sea. 

A week later we flew to Sharm El Sheikh (tip of Sinai Peninsula) for snorkeling and rest:

Snorkeling in the Red Sea was like swimming IN the aquarium!


Next? On to Cairo to meet up with Liz's daughter Scheller, her new Egyptian husband Ahmed, her son Tim, Scheller's long time "friend of honor", Ella, and Mahmoud, Ahmed's best man.  All gathered to celebrate the marriage of Scheller and Ahmed in the town of Fayoum, their new home and Ahmed's childhood home, 1 hour south of Cairo:

Giza:  Hip Hip Hooray!


 Ahmed's sisters and their children and friends, at the Wedding Reception in Fayoum.
We danced to boom box, "Happy" and ate delicious Egyptian foods made by loving hands.
