39 November/December 2019 | THE DAVEY BULLETIN EXPLORING A WONDER OF THE ANCIENT WORLD Kyle Paton, technical skills trainer, safety department, Davey Tree Expert Co. of Canada, Limited, traveled to Cairo, Egypt, with his girlfriend for her best friend's wedding. "I joked with John Arico that despite my attempts to establish a Davey office in Egypt I came up short, because there aren't as many trees there as I thought there would be," Paton said. "That was a bit of an adjustment." While in Cairo they toured the region. On the last day of their trip, they visited the Pyramids at Giza. "It's beyond words when you are standing at the base and you realize it was assembled by people," Paton said. "These blocks are the size of cars. It's a cool part of history." Another fascinating excursion on their trip was taking a hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings. "That's a put- you-in-your place moment when you realize how small you are," he said. During the balloon ride, Paton lost his casual sunglasses – they landed somewhere in a field. But luckily, he had a pair of Davey safety glasses. "The durability of Davey safety glasses can't be overstated," Paton said. "I had a pair of Davey darks in my bag. I wore them the rest of the trip and they can handle anything you throw at them." This photo was taken on Kyle Paton's last day in Egypt. Paton said it was difficult to keep that Davey Bulletin wrinkle free. He sandwiched it in his bag and it actually survived until the end of the trip. DAVEY AROUND THE WORLD
