Hotel Lobby - Waiting again... - Egypt

This is me waiting - again! - in a hotel lobby. Is it just me, or do all family holidays result in much waiting by parents for offspring (and wives) while they get their acts together and do all the little things they decide at the last minute are vitally important and can't be ignored. Photograph by wife on her way back while I was apparently looking particularly annoyed.

On another note, this is fairly typical of my experience of Egyptian hotel lobbies, very impressive in marble usually with a (Moorish?) water feature adding a welcome coolness and sound. It's especially welcome when you first arrive a bit shell-shocked from the culture (and temperature!) difference from your flight.
