We got to Cairo at 4:00 am. During the trip we had about three rest stops and about five I.D. checks. Going through the Suez tunnel was the worse, they checked the bus, they checked the luggage, it was kind of scary. We went to Mohab's and slept for a few hours. I packed up my stuff and we went to a hotel to spend our last day together together.

We went shopping for the rings (the tradition there being to wear your wedding band on your right hand when engaged and then switch it to your left hand after you're marriage), then went to his parent's for dinner.

We then went back to the hotel for a couple of hours, then left for the airport. I was good, I didn't cry until the final big hug.

The first plane trip was okay, again I was beside an Italian couple that didn't speak much English, I slept like a log through most of it. Getting off I met a girl from Brampton and we hung out during the transfer. I met up with one of the girls from the first flight in the airport.
