KC is going to Egypt!
Don't let her go - said my friends from The Big Bike Ride.
It's dangerous, they said.
But they don't know KC.
She's stubborn
intelligent
and
independent
And she has been studying hieroglyphics
- on her own -
since high school.
She says her love of Egypt
started as a child
when Al taught her summer school.
Her room is full of Egypt...
...her favorite book...
...an Egyptian dagger...
...and from Penrod...
an Egyptian story board.
This one tells the life of a cat.
It says if you care for a cat in this life...
He will take care of you in the afterlife.
I think Tom will have a good afterlife.
KC has had a life of adventure...
She has biked the coast of Ireland
with her Mom...
....met a monkey
in the wilds of Peru...
...wrestled with Aaron
in the calms
of Wisconsin...
and fallen out of her kayak
into the dark waters
of the Everglades
at night.
KC now studies Arabic
at ASU...
...and reads Nefretiti
for fun.
And in January
- the day before her 20th birthday -
KC will fly to Egypt...
...her life long dream.
Wow. Such a good story! What a good job!
