Yesterday, Courtney & I went over to the CAC with the boys and our downstairs neighbors’ youngest boy for a couple of hours. I went for a run on the tracks, Courtney sat down to read, and the boys played soccer and games on the playground. After a couple of laps I ran into a good friend and her son finishing up a game of tennis, so she joined Courtney on the bench, and her son played with the boys. A few laps later, a good friend of my friend had joined in the chat, and a couple of more children had showed up to join in the games. If you’re looking for a couple of casual hours of chatting and running into friends or meeting new friends, the CAC on a weekend is definitely your place!
The matter of water came up, of course, and yes, we still have water. It has not been turned off. I guess it still could get turned off any minute without warning, but this - being Cairo - is something we’ve learned to live with. We’re moving at a slow but steady pace, carry lots of patience and spontaneity, don’t get upset when things go wrong knowing that God is almighty here (literally), and that things will (probably) always work out in the end. In shah Allah.
