Three more weeks in Allentown, then I'm off to Old Cairo!!! I noticed that the google ads on the side banner are now displaying Cairo and Egypt travel, along with the Luxor in Las Vegas.

When I arrived in Allentown last Monday, they were still trying to dig out from under 10 inches of snow! The runway had been plowed so it was clear, but there were big piles of snow everywhere. There were no taxis at the airport, so I had to wait around for a ride to the hotel and PPL office. The downtown area looked really funny with all the piles of snow. It snowed a bit more that afternoon, so the freshly plowed street got a bit more covered up but not by alot. The next morning, veeerrrryyy early, I heard a loud racket on the street and when I went out for work, I noticed the biggest piles had been removed! It was really cold and I had to be careful walking across the street, but otherwise, it wasn't too bad. I bought a disposable camera to take some pix of the snow (but I didn't get the really big piles) . . . when I finish all the pix and get it developed, I'll post some of them here!
