An Egyptian Halloween, in creepy photos


This was supposed to be published on Halloween Day - BUT, life happened.  My apologies - I got to wear the scariest Halloween costume ever and no one wanted to be around me - I wore the costume of a very sick person!  Over two weeks later and I am feeling enough like myself to finally get this blog posted!  BOO!
By far the weirdest thing we saw at the Monasteries

Vertically challenged crisis or solution?

Riding on the tram at night - these severed arms and legs looked quite realistic!

Not sure why the kids are not worthy of faces? (I am still kicking myself for not taking a picture of the child mannequin who literally had its face punched in!)

A legitimate "fish and bird" museum that has seen MUCH better days - as half of these featherless mounts looked like an avian zombie apocalypse.

Body-less lions and headless statues abound
Along with the (fake) bloody human limbs that hang everywhere - there are some real bloody carcasses around as well.
Schutz got into the Halloween spirit with these paper mache
jack-0-lanterns made by the kids 
Fall Festival happened a week or two after Halloween.  I was still sick, so I missed most of the festivities - but Gary got a few pictures of some of the fun.
Our awesome Middle School math/science teacher, right from her assignment at Hogwarts - helped with the donut challenge
Head of school has a go at the donut challenge!

I wasn't sure if these were Halloween costumes or legitimate "outfits"
Hundreds - if not thousands - of Faceless men and women lined every single street in this market area.  Wouldn't this be a fun place to return to after dark??
