We spent the first week of Spring Break with Ally's parents in Egypt. Everyday was wonderful; here's a quick summary of the week:
April 5 - Lounging about the resort's pools. Papa Ricky & Bammy arrive in evening.
April 6 - Lounging on the beach at the Red Sea. Luke does a short test dive, but Ally chickens out at the last minute.
April 7 - Lounging about the resort's pools. Spend the evening at Naama Bay (eat at Hard Rock Cafe, partly in Alex's honor but mostly because we knew we could eat the food and not get sick).
April 8 - Happy b-day to Ally! Luke & Ally travel to Cairo for Giza Pyramids; Sphinx; Egyptian Museum, including King Tut's treasures and 2,000 - 3,000 year old mummies; and bargaining for "treasures" of our own in local markets.
April 9 - Excursion to Mt Sinai and Dahab. Celebrate Ally's b-day in the evening with a very unique cake.
April 10 - More lounging about the resort's pools. Say goodbye to Papa Ricky and Bammy in late afternoon.
April 11 - Still more lounging about the resort's pools. It may seem at this point like we did a lot of pool side relaxing, but trust me when I say we loved every minute.
April 12 - Back in London flat by 2:30 a.m. Izzie awake by 6:30 a.m. It's now 6:00 p.m.; the skies are overcast and the temperature is chilly. Luke, Ally and Maddie have been awake all day and wishing they were back in Egypt.
I know I've included way too many pictures, but check out the following slide show of our adventures.

As usual, it looks like you had a great time!!!! Maybe now that you're moving back to the States I won't be nearly as jealous. I will be so happy to see you on a regular basis though.
