Baby Love

Before we left I was told "Egyptians love kids" - you'll be fine. Chinese love kids, Italians love kids, but really Egyptians LOVE kids! In Rome the boys were getting pats on the heads from passersby and Cici got a few pinched cheeks. But I think Cici has been kissed by almost two dozen Egyptians in the 4 days we've been here. It started with the flight attendant on the plane over and hasn't let up. All of the staff here at the hotel ask about Cici first if she's not with us. The waitress just snaps her up out of her sit and stroll and offers to feed her. But the peak of attention (aside from her boyfriend in Rome) had to be outside of the Great Pyramid. A young girl about 10 years old(the one in yellow and green) came over to take Cici's photo on her phone other kids noticed and in about 2 minutes I was surrounded by a dozen girls (and one cute boy) asking what Cici's name was, how old she is and if they could kiss her!
