Egypt day 3

We started our day at the Egyptian museum. The number of artifacts is simply amazing. We saw all of King Tuts collection.

After the museum we went to the citadel mosque. We sat in the prayer area and learned about Islam.

Then we went to the market and practiced our negotiation skills. We all purchased small mementos.

There are wild cats all over Cairo! We love looking out for them.

After the market we had a tradition Middle Eastern lunch on a boat on the Nile.

Then we went back to the pyramids and another camel ride. Yesterday the pyramids were covered in fog (very mysterious) and today was bright sunshine and blue sky.

Back at the hotel we went for a swim! I am sure the pool employees were all laughing at us for swimming. It is warm for us here. Maybe around 70 and sunny.

Tomorrow we have a short flight to Aswan were we will be until New Years.

First Day 4th Grade!

Orinda Country Cotillion

The Orinda Country  Cotillion  is a forty year community tradition sponsoring a series of seven evening dance classes and welcomes all seventh graders in Orinda.  The boys are girls are both broken into two sections, so every other dance is with the opposite boy group. Two of the dances are themed (a sock hop and country -western) and the rest are semi-formal.  Last night was the first dance in the seven dance series.  Kate and her friend Zoe had a great time.  They learned the fox trot and a line dance.  Seemed like fun!
