I Want To Travel The World

I was in Egypt the last time right after they revolted and burned the Government buildings. We weren't sure we were going to be allowed in the country even. We visited the museum that is right there art the building that was burnt. I can still remember the smells of charred electronics and dry heat chemicals. It was both exciting and sad to see. The people were excited over their take back but at the same times the trash was overflowing and filling the canals. Egypt has its beautiful side and then it also has its poorer less beautiful non touristy side. I can say I have touched the great pyramids and had my picture made with them and I have ridden a camel in most places, but I think my takeaway from Egypt was a sadder memory of little children trying to earn money selling trinkets and how determined they were to make every American dollar they could.
