Snow in Cairo?? Believe anything is possible!

No one will ever believe it but it happened!!!
Cairo has been extremely cold the past few days especially for a Southern California girl living in Cairo for the past 3 years! 

I have been freezing my a*s off. I even wore the gloves that my boss gave me to use in London.
Wearing what I had to keep myself warm, I felt absolutely ridiculous in Cairo. 
Just few days ago I was still making fun of my friend Bamboo having leather gloves and a thick coat for the winter. It's KARMA. I thought she was just crazy dreaming she is in Paris.
It's CAIRO that we are talking about. 

Then the unbelievable happened the morning of Dec 13! What's that outside of my window??? 
I know it's just hail. 

Then I started checking Facebook and found many media reporting snow found in Cairo.

Amazing!!
Cairo experienced its last snowfalls in January 1639 and 10 January 1855! 185 years ago! 

Wow the last 3 years living in Egypt I have seen 2 revolutions, 3 presidents, and now snow in 158 years. 
Snow fell today in Cairo, believe anything is possible! 

Time to get ice cream in the outfit. Yalla we are ready
