You are most welcome.

I was in upper Egypt during a windstorm and someone asked the Egyptian driver, “Does the wind always blow this way”? And the driver is dead serious when he says, “No, sometimes it blows the other way.”

We all laughed. It hurt his feelings, him not being familiar with American idioms. I still laugh.

I loved Egypt. We went there twice when we lived there (also to Kenya) and once again to Egypt when I came home. The Egyptians are nice...and they LIKED Americans. That was a breath of fresh air for us.
