Dude, Asli has got it going on. I want to be on her boat.

Another epic adventure down. Can't wait to hear about the next one.

[emo_snal]

Yeah she's pretty awesome (:

But pidgeon tower sounds so... delightfully dystopian. :D Ah I thought a dovecote only housed doves? Can I call it a columbaria as well then?

[emo_snal]

Is that the one where they put dead people?

Lovely pictures as always. I can't wait to hear more :)

Thanks (:

Thoroughly enjoyable! And I have to say, your Dr. Campbell looks might fine up on that camel. I'm truly glad your Egypt adventure went so well. Can't wait for the next adventure to begin, which I guess for you would have been yesterday but for me will be when I get to your next post :)

Oh Dr Campbell was such a hoot. I should email him. (:

Next up will the post about the Chico adventure!

I wonder why Husam didn't think you'd want to spend the night with the family or dine with the people from the other organization. Does it make his reputation fancier somehow if he can say oh no, we have a hotel or oh no, he'll be too busy for that? In situations where I've had to have a minder our guide sometimes wanted us to go to a certain place for shopping because he/she would get a kick back, totally normal of course, but they'd be genuinely affronted if I went by myself to bargain with just any old street vendor because they thought I was letting down their reputation by talking to the wrong sort of person. They were concerned for their rep as a guide.

I love all the photos. All of them!

I think he just... didn't feel like going out, and didn't feel like staying with the family vs a nice relaxing hotel room, so he voluntold me that's what we were doing d:

And thanks! (:
