Once we actually got on the plane Mom, Shezena, and I were all on our phones calling and texting people our last goodbye while still in the US. The crew shut the door and off we were to Egypt. The flight was not too bad. The kids got a little antsy so they went for a walk around the plane every chance they got.
We prayed Magrib, Isha, and Fajr while in the air I thought it was really neat to see other people praying on the plane. We were already facing the right direction because we were headed East. Some men went to the front of the plane to stand up and pray.
The plane had mostly Egyptians and a few tourists. Most of the women were wearing hijab. Usually, the only hijabis on board are my mom, my sister, and me.
The Players...
We are an American Muslim homeschooling family of eight. Two parents, and six children. We are nomadic people, taking the good from the places we go, and inshallah, leaving some too. We are currently back in the US, awaiting a new adventure.
