Whirlwind Egypt Tour
Ed and I returned from a 9-day fast-paced and awesome (in the real sense of the word) trip to Egypt about a week ago. Pics can be found here.
I have to say the age of some of the stuff, and the size, and the vast amounts of perfectly preserved artifacts, and the fabulous organized chaos of the Egyptian tourist industry, and the Nile, and EVERYTHING was fantastic. The only downside was how little time we had, especially in Cairo, which I fell in love with. We also were ina group with my parents and three Indian couple friends of theirs, which made for some interesting moments...
Where to next? How can one top Egypt? Personally, I am craving a week on a beach somewhere, anywhere (well, not anywhere - I am from Jersey and have seen some pretty bad beaches).
