Under the Jacaranda Tree: American Childhood in Egypt

These are memories of an American child growing up in Egypt during the 1969-1983 time frame. Due to modernization, many of the sights and experiences are no longer there, and the people I loved there are long gone. The memories of experiences are all mine and I mean to leave a record of a life of adventure and simple pleasures that have long been lost to videogames and cell phones. I hope one day these stories will be passed on to all who want to remember a Cairo of long ago.
