Destination: Cairo

My next trip will be to Cairo. The fascinating metropolitan city I've longed to visit for many years.
Being half-Egyptian, I'm only ashamed to admit I've been there once as a child and my memories of the place, food and people are somewhat blurred.

I can't remember the last time I've been so excited for a business trip. Perhaps its because I know the lonely hotel nights will be replaced by loud distant-family gatherings, or perhaps coz I know once I finish those meetings I'll look forward for a day full of unexpected surprises with every step I take on the crazy crowded streets of Dear Cairo.

I have an old photograph of me holding my mother's hand on a beach. I was three. I'm looking up at her in total awe and eyes full of curiousity. She stands with one hand on her large straw hat shielding her face from the strong sun and guarding the hat from flying off into the wind... On the back in small handwriting it says: "Alexandria" and the date.
I'd like to know who took this shot.

And I can't wait.
