The Cairo International Airport where I killed 12 hours on no-sleep since 2 nights before waiting for my 8-hr-direct-flight back to the U.S.A. The last few hours were rough - the air-conditioning was on too-high inside, there was no place to sit outside and I started thinking about all the responsibilities I would have to pick-up in New York. Finally I found an outdoor cafe wheeling my backpack around in a push-cart where I could lounge on a couch, order a salad, drink tea and watch old Egyptian movies until it was time to check-in.
