The Welch family moved from Boca Raton, Florida to Brussels, Belgium on Oct 23, 2005 for a two year stint with James' company, Deloitte & Touche LLP. This hopefully will track the many journeys we hope to take while we're here and the little adventures along the way...

More of Cairo

This brave man sitting next to Ciaran is Hassen Amin. He was our guide we hired from our hotel. We highly recommend him if you are in Cairo or around Egypt as he knows everything about everything and is very patient with kids, and mine are the benchmark on patience! He can be reached at hass_rock50@yahoo.com (there is an "_" inbetween hass_rock). Thanks Hassen!!!


Hassen took us to the bazaar which is interesting but you get harassed by the merchants.



This is taken in the oldest coffee shop (not like the ones in Amsterdam) in Cairo; it's 250 years old. It's something out of an Agatha Christie novel. You can also smoke hookahs there, though from what we smelled it was fruit flavored tobacco.
