Frankly I was ready after three weeks to get out of Cameroon but I'm scheduled to go back in early February but this time it will be to the capital city, Yaounde, and I'll be working with the U.S. State Department. This will be my third trip to Cameroon but the first to this location and only for one week so it should be a little more relaxed than last month.
From Cameroon I fly to Cairo, Egypt for a two-week job with ExxonMobil and I'm excited about this one! It will be my first trip to Egypt, or to the Middle East, and I'm tentatively scheduled to be working at a location south of Cairo very near the pyramids of Giza. The pyramids have been near the top of my "must see" list for a long time.
I was originally scheduled to do another State Department job in Namibia, in the southern tip of Africa, but that job got cancelled at the last minute so I'm going to spend four extra days in Cairo after the job is finished and do the tourist thing around the city--museums, tours, churches, etc. Should be a great opportunity to get some fantastic photos.
Hope you all had happy holidays this past year and the coming year is a good one for all of us......
