Nile and Cairo Skyline

Cairo is a very big city and the Nile is a very big river. I was told there are somewhere around 18 million inhabitants in Cairo. The unemployment reate is astronomical. According to the CIA World Factbook, the GDP per capita in 2008 was $5,400. To get a persepective, that puts it at 135 place of 229 countries. But the people were wonderful, the food was incredible and the weather in January was awsome, Would I live there? No. But, I will go back anytime you want to take me.
