It's about 5:30 am here in California, and somehow I managed to get some sleep last night! I am totally pumped, this is going to be the big daddy of adventures. It has a bit of everything; new cultures to experience, some famous landmarks to see, the largest being one of the seven wonders of the world, namely the great pyramids. Some adventure out on the African plains seeing the wildlife and vast landscapes while on safari, some tropical settings in Sinai relaxing and enjoying all the amenities that the 5 star Hilton can provide, and snorkeling in the Red Sea. Some extreme sports like hang gliding in Cape Town, great white shark diving in Mossel Bay, and then bungee from the highest commerical bungee site in the world at over 708 feet off of Bloukrans bridge near Plattenburg Bay. Praise God for such an amazing opportunity! I'm really looking forward to spending some time getting closer to God too, no work, no computers, just plenty of time and plenty of fun. It's going to be awesome!! Next stop London. And then on to Cairo.

Until then everyone, take care.
