egyptian oasis

As I have 20 minutes of repose in the midst of this already hectic time, I thought I would send thru a little note from me and my mobile technology (which has finally lost the plastic screen shield, for those taking a vested interest. ; ) from the beautiful poolside view of the hotel, which is one of the most beautiful I have ever had the utmost pleasure of staying in. Haven't seen anything else of Cairo yet, but despite the many things I have been told I like the prelinary vibe here, palpable instantly.
