Graham and Uni in Cairo

When I got to Cairo, I met Graham and his wife Uni at breakfast at Pension Roma. They are both from England - Uni is originally from Korea. They are both "sexy pumpkins". They are 5 days into a 2 year trip! Pretty cool!

Uni has been in Cairo before. She is a very outgoing Korean girl who can speak Arabic. I was always a little surprised when she spoke Arabic - and I think alot of the people on the street were surprised too!

I hung out with Graham and Uni and visited the Citadel and the mosque of Ahmed Ibn Tulun. The mosque was a big outdoors mosque that was built in 895 AD and as the main mosque had to be big enough to house the entire male population of Cairo.
