So the main reason we picked the cruise we did was because it stopped in Egypt.  A friend of mine had been and it sounded amazing.  It was.  I hope my older son will at least remember what he saw that day!

Off to see the Pyramids

 20091215-CruiseDecember 15, 2009  The next stop on our cruise was to Egypt.  We got off the ship in Alexandria and drove the 3 hours to Cairo to see the Pyramids and the Sphinx.  The next day my husband stayed on the boat with the boys and I did a tour of Alexandria :)

 

We started in Europe, went to Asia and now in Africa.

Ephesus…like from the Bible

This trip is the first time I ever  got to visit somewhere from Biblical times.  And it was amazing! 

 

The ruins in Ephesus, Turkey are amazing!

Bokeh in Turkey

The Red Rug

The Wheels on the Cart

I love visiting new places because there always seems to be something beautiful and new to capture.  I took these right before we got back on the bus while I was waiting for the rest of my family
