Well i have arrived in egypt and joined the tour, my roommate is a lovely girl from NZ and there are a couple from Wollongong who are fun and a bunch of americans!
We have seen so much! i did alexandria on my first day and then we did the pyramids and the museum, the mummies were cool! then we caught the overnight train to Aswan - not much sleep!
Aswan is hot! we checked out abu simbel and some of the nubian culture - Ab Simbel is only 50km from Sudan!
Last night we went to a light show at Philae temple and today were are hanging out on a felucca overnight!
oops better go! more later!

I have a lot to be thankful for but today i feel grumpy and tired and like i want to be on holidays already, i still have a bit of a snotty nose and i really should have gone to bed earlier last night!
1. I am thankful for my very lovely and generous parents. They are just cool. Likewise my siblings and siblings in law.
2. I am thankful for a nice warm bed to go home to at the end of each day
3. I am thankful for the opportunity and ability to go overseas on a holiday and see the world
4. I am thankful for my friends and am looking forward to hanging out with a gaggle of them before i go away
5. I am thankful that i fit into some size 12 pants! Yeeha! I dont think thats happened since i was 12!!!
6. I am thankful that i have had a sip of diet coke :)
7. I am thankful that I am crossing things of my to do list!
8. I am thankful for the safe birth of Jasmine, a girl from church's baby.
Half way through this post i wrote out an itinerary for my trip and gosh darn it that made me sooooo less grumpy! 5 days til take off!

Thankful Friday
Well i was too sick yesterday to do anything much so once again i am late with thankful thursday!
I have got a cold and a sinus infection, yuck and only 11 days til my holiday! oh well long enough to get well i suppose!
Its quite good to do this thankful thing once a week, because i find it way too easy to whinge and complain!
I am thankful for:
1. Antibiotics and cold and flu tablets
2. sleep! I went home early from work yesterday and got into bed at 4.30pm, i got up for an hour and a half at 8pm then slept on through til 6.30am. I still feel tired today but i have taught scripture and been to playtime and am now procrastinating on finishing a sermon!
3. my mummy - she is lovely
4. Jo - Bronwyn one of the office ladies is on holidays so Jo the wedding lady is here every day. Its fun! We talk recipes and generally chat :)
5. Mum and dad and my accountant Jean. She is very lovely, she and mum had to work out who would break the news to me that i had to pay tax rather than get a refund! but she gave me some helpful tips for next year!
6. that there are 11 days til my holiday!
7. my lovely friends and their super cute kids.
8. yellow things :)
right well i better get to work.....
