10/15/2022 0 Comments Arriving in egyptIt's finally the day we are arriving in EGYPT!!!! It's so crazy how time has flown by and we're on our school break! Waking up at 4am to get to the airport definitely wasn't fun, however our parents woke up with us and saw us off to the airport which was so sweet. Our uber driver played some Snoop Dog to wake all of us up as we headed to the airport. We booked an early flight so that we would have the full day in Egypt. The flight went well, only taking an hour in the air from Amman to Cairo. It took about 30 minutes to get from the airport to our hotel, and oh man our hotel!! We stayed in the Grand Nile Towers, a 5-Star hotel that was 40 stories high! Everything was so fancy and it was crazy that we were staying there. Check-in wasn't until 3pm, so we left our bags at reception and headed to the Egyptian Museum of Cairo.
The museum was sooo big!! We went just the two of us without a guide, making us one of the few people just going throughout the museum. It was awful seeing how much disrespect so many people/travelers have for the museum and the history that was there. Anything that wasn't behind glass people were climbing on or touching, it was crazy!!! Besides that, it felt unreal that we were able to walk through and see such amazing history and art preserved. Overall, it was a great start to the trip!
