Where Business will take You!

As some of you may know recently I made a few business trips to Puerto Rico and Cairo, Egypt. I spent 2 weeks in Puerto Rico in September and then 8 days in Cairo, Egypt during November. They were both great trips. In Puerto Rico I had to stay the weekend, the resort I was staying at had a very nice 27-hole golf course. We got out and played Saturday. On Sunday we drove from Ponce, where we stayed the first week, to San Juan. We toured "Old San Juan" on Sunday. It was a pretty neat area.

Then, on November 7th I left for Cairo, Egypt. Their work week is Sunday - Thursday. So I worked Sunday - Thursday and stayed the day on Friday to do some sight seeing. During the week a few of the people I was working with from the client took us out on the town. It was a lot of fun.

Fresh Fish Restaurant
You walk in select from all the fish, fresh from the Red Sea. Once you select your fish, shrimp, etc, you go upstairs to a table and in 20 - 30 minutes they brought the fish cooked in 6 different Egyptian styles. It was really good.

I definitely missed my family during these trips but technology is amazing these days to keep everyone in touch.
