The end of Ramadan is marked by Eid El Fetr. AUC shuts down for four days,
and Nancy and I spent a night at the
Mena House hotel next to the Giza
pyramids. (Curtis was at a friend's for a sleep over, and Trish enjoyed
the alone time watching DVDs on the computer.)
This is a five star hotel (one of the Oberoi group) and is
in a refurbished palace. We splurged on a room in the old palace part
with a view of the pyramids while lying on the bed! The hotel had
several restaurants - we tried the Indian one and had a great meal.
