Before we got going today we drove by and got a morning shot of the pyramids. We spent the morning in the Egyptian National Museum but could not take any pictures. Here we are at lunch at the Sea Horse cafe.
 
We then went to 'Old Cairo'. T his stairway leads to St. Sargius Church. This is the oldest church in Egypt.
 
The church is on the site where Mary and Joseph hid in Egypt for two years. This stairway leads to the actual chamber believed to be where they hid. This is the interior of the church.
 
This is the oldest Synagogue in Egypt. We were not allowed to take pictures inside. Some more of the streets in Old Cairo.
 
We took our flight to Lexor today. It was a one hour easy flight. We spent the night at the Nile Palace Hotel. A very elegant place to stay.
