So, Egypt.... it was a blast!!! What a crazy place with a bunch of crazy people. There is so much history!! The sites were awesome. Auburn was huge hit!!! Everyone loved her. People would stop and take pictures of her. Seriously, one lady stopped her car to get out to have her picture taken with Auburn. I wasn't expecting that. We have a ton a pictures, so I tried to just pull out of few....although there are a ton on here.

There were four soccers games total for the trip. At one of the games we were surrounded by a bunch of children. They kept coming up to us and asking the only questions they knew in English, like "What is your name?" and "How are you?"
