Walking in Cairo





After we left Al Azhar Park, we drove back to the coffee shop and walked around some. From the shop, there is an alleyway that gives a short-cut that I ended up knowing like the back of my hand. Here is a picture of the mosque in that alley. Also I really liked this doorway - the tilework is pretty. So then we walked to one of the bridges that crosses from downtown to Zamalek (an island). You can see the boats from the bridge. These boats are electrified with loud dance music and groovy lights and fill up with people at nights. But here is my first view of them and my first view of the Nile.
