The last day of Ramadan was Friday. Today is the last day of a three-day feast called Eid il Fitr. The other night we went out for a quick trip to the bakery to buy some sweets for our friends. Mission accomplished but it was not a quick trip. Here is a shot of people waiting in line for konaffa, kak and basbousa. 
and this picture from a gas station...
We have thousands of pictures from our time here in Egypt. Life is very interesting and full of surprises. However, many of the best shots are not captured on camera. Hopefully we have enough to remember these past two years and the faces of these people that have welcomed us into their lives.
It is not uncommon to see people reading the Quran especially during Ramadan
. We went to Alexandria this week for a meeting and got this picture of a guy gettting in some extra reading. Who said guys can't multi-task?
