Quick life update!

Me, my dad and my brother Peter in front of our Nile Cruise boat the Moon Goddess
While one might assume I have been hibernating while not updating my blog, it isn't true! In fact, I have been quite busy. December was filled with traveling and relaxing. My family (my mom, dad and Peter) came to visit me on December 18 for two weeks and we traveled to Upper Egypt on the infamous Nile Cruise to all the incredible Pharaonic sites and monuments from Aswan to Luxor and everything in between. The entire two weeks were great. Some moments that stick out in my head include when my brother's luggage didn't arrive before we left for the cruise so he now owns a couple pairs of Egyptian pants that our tour guide helped us find in Aswan. Shockingly, they look like regular pants! (re: sarcasm). We also had a lovely Christmas day at the Giza pyramids and the weather was perfect.
