Back in the US

Beth and I flew out of Cairo yesterday morning for JFK. We were very sad to leave Egypt, which we consider to be our home away from home, but we were looking forward to seeing our loved ones in the US, using nice bathrooms and sleeping in comfy beds, and we were already planning our next trip to Egypt. Our flight was uneventful and the 11 or so hours we spent in the air passed quickly.

When we arrived in Stamford, our Mom had a great meal ready for us, which we ate outside on their patio. Later, we gave everyone the gifts we had bought for them in Egypt or Kenya. Immediately after dinner, Beth and Roger headed for their home after she and I exchanged a teary goodbye, because Beth had to work the next day.

Another great sister vacation was over, but there would be more to come.
