Day 2 Exploring the wilderness

Day two began with a scenic tour of the Pyramids of Giza and then I traveled east in the wilderness of Egypt to the Sinai Peninsula. The wilderness of Egypt was the land traveled by the Israelites when Moses led them to the Red Sea. This wilderness is located between the Land of Goshen and the Red Sea. "So God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea..." Exodus 13:18.  Some archaeologist site the place of the crossing of the sea at Suez Canal. Today we got to walk up and down a beach of the canal. West of the Suez Canal is the city of Succoth. It is here where Moses and the children of Israel camped together as they fled Egypt. We then crossed the Suez Canal via a tunnel that passes underneath the canal. I end my day traveling on a bus through the wilderness over five hours to reach our next destination: Mt. Sinai.
