Back to Egypt

After leaving Petra, we took a taxi to Aqaba and then crossed into Eilat, where we swam at the beach for a bit. I said farewell to my French friends and crossed back into Egypt to the border town of Taba. I had about 2 hours to wait for my bus to come and it was around 45 degrees, so it was hot. The man at the bus station managed to convince me to take the minibus, which was leaving immediately, back to Cairo instead, a 7 hour ride. The minibus had wood paneling that came down from the seats, so my legs were at less than a 90 degree angle for the entire ride. Made it back safely, thats what counts. Traveling in style....
