February 2, 2011 – Day 6
It is the end of day 6. Six whole days of being in one house with a bunch of people. But tomorrow is coming, my friends.
Tomorrow we are hopping on an airplane to Jordan to visit some friends. We hope to come back to Egypt soon, but we want to give them some time to figure out and adjust to the new normal, before we jump back in the middle of it.
I am packed. 4 suitcases, 2 carry-on suitcases, and 2 backpacks. It is still a little crazy to me, even after 6 days of this as reality, that there are tanks and army men with big guns just around the corner.
But, tonight we have baked a bunch of cookies to take to the airport and now the kids are watching Mary Poppins and Sophie is screaming in her bed. Apparently, she is not ready to sleep. Poor kid.
We leave the house around 11am tomorrow and should arrive at the airport around noon, if all goes well. Our flight isn’t until after 7 in the evening. It is going to be a long day. A long, long day.
