Today was a rather sickly day. We had several team members experience the all to familiar "Traveler's Diarrhea". Adam and Richard however were able to have a very good meeting with a bishop. The well team members went and toured "Old Cairo", and did some shopping. You would think that would not take very long, but we started at 11:30 and got home around 9:30. Everything in Egypt takes time. We spend a lot of time waiting. We are loving every minute of it though!! Everyday life is an adventure, we are never bored!!!
Yesterday was a great day as well. Not only was it Liz's 30th birthday, we were also able to visit an orphanage in Mukhattam. It was absolutely the most fun I have had at an orphanage yet. There were about 24 children living there, and almost 75% of them were boys, so needless to say it was rowdy!! I read them a Christmas story that they loved and then we passed out some gifts.
Cohen was the hit though. Immediately when we got there the boys were grabbing him and saying in arabic, "Look what I have found, a yellow haired monster." They were laughing histerically!!! Cohen was a little unsure, but he soon was playing with the boys, and holding his own!! They all were kissing him and telling them that they loved him!!!
It was great to share God's love with them!!!
Well off to bed soon, we have an early day tomorrow!!
Liz
