    I loved Cairo, I went to Cairo, took the train to Alexandria, Flew to Aswan, sailed up the Nile to Luxor solo, 21 days. Didn't see the Pyramids had to run back to the states. Can't wait to get back to Egyp! Thank You! I love crossing cairo streets! Thanks again!

    @@Iceyfire12 I guess running across a place like Tahir Square, a huge round about in the middle of Cairo, adds that adventurous dangerous element. Once a person hits 50, caution and fear of traffic sets in. Here in America, it's gotten real bad the past 10 years where they'll just run over you like how it is in lots of other countries that's been corrupted, dehumanized, and debt enslaved for a few thousand years past the point of return. The days of cute little red cabooses with friendly guys waving are long gone.

    What you are hearing bro in the 14th min is called Azan for Muslim prayers . You are hearing it 5 times a day. It's nice to see you , i am Omar from Egypt.

    The pray call is 5 times a day and it's in Arabic. It includes praise for the God Almighty Allah and for the prophet Mohammed peace be upon him however it doesn't go on all night the last one of the day would be like 10 pm in the summer, 7:30 pm in the winter. Then the next which is the first on the next day would be in dawn around 4 pm in the summer and 6 am in the winter. I enjoyed your video especially when you were trying to get across the streets of Cairo following what the locals were doing, I honestly couldn't help my self from laughing. like Egyptian people are the experts it seems so safe as it's a part of their daily lives. I love Egypt🇪🇬 flaws and all. Following from neighboring Libya🇱🇾. God bless you brother.

    I was there about 3 months after the election in 2014. I am an American convert to Islam. I was visiting a fellow educator in Upper Egypt, which is a 10 hour train ride south of Cairo. I was in Cairo for a week. I have severe ptsd still from my trip. I wore niqab and fully covered, as I was told by my peer that it was cultural standard for women in Upper Egypt. I did not do so in Cairo, but I dressed in hijab and was dressed modestly, but in a modern, casual way.

    Soon you will regret your mistake of converting and you may come to your senses. Is this the ayah made you to convert? الرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَآءِ بِمَا فَضَّلَ اللَّهُ بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَبِمَآ أَنفَقُواْ مِنْ أَمْوالِهِمْ فَالصَّالِحَاتُ قَانِتَاتٌ حَافِظَاتٌ لِّلْغَيْبِ بِمَا حَفِظَ اللَّهُ وَاللاتِي تَخَافُونَ نُشُوزَهُنَّ فَعِظُوهُنَّ وَاهْجُرُوهُنَّ فِى الْمَضَاجِعِ وَاضْرِبُوهُنَّ.
