Our Egyptian Adventure - Day 1

Day One of the Journey! Christy : We decided to go a day early to Egypt since it was such a long flight (16 hours) and I'm so glad we did. But first, the journey started in Los Angeles. We stayed overnight in LA so that if by some weird off chance our flight was delayed we would have plenty of time to get to Egypt. We called a cab to come pick us up and take us to the airport. The airport was only maybe 15 minutes away from the hotel so it wasn't a far cab ride. Well unfortunately is was a long 15 minutes! I feel like our cab driver had only just learned how to drive. It was the worst cab ride I have ever taken in my life. I couldn't tell if the transmission was bad or he had it in the wrong gear. After it was over I had whiplash and motion sickness from all the jerking back and forth and abrupt breaking! It was awful. Anywho, the plane ride wasn't too bad although I didn't get much sleep because the seats were hard...
