im back from egypt!
it has been a 10day trip of almost 13 hours multiply it by 2 to get almost 26 hours of flight to and fro from singapore to doha. doha to luxor. then from cairo to doha. doha to singapore. phew. it was exhausting. i lost track of time as there was a time difference of 6 hours.
Well im back home and im glad! i caught a flu in egypt 3 days til the end of the trip. fever kept coming and coming. therefore ate more and more panadols. unlucky right?
At least i enjoyed the trip! it was really really good (:
the group was a small one of ard 20. many consisting of nice and friendly old couples that are travelling the world (:
very nice peeps~! a malay family of 4 and a group of NIE 3rd year students. the tour guides were nice (: many stories to tell! x) very interesting stuffs.
Overall. egypt is a very exotic and interesting country. (:
and really not meant to go if one is not even interested in the ancient egyptians history like my grandma. x) The temples are SPECTACULAR! huge! carved out of stone O.O beautiful! the scenes on the walls of the temples are priceless.!
The pyramids of giza. one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world~! nice (:
And! the traffic! omygod! it sucks like hell! the streets of cairo is so unorganised! the cars and gas is soo cheap that everyone could afford one! making the roads packed like crazy, ppl just walk along the roads not giving a dam to the cars ard them ... cars in all different directions.! horning and banging their car horns! it was as if it was music to their ears! not even a minute with out a single horn!
Their bazzar! they kept on repeating *one dollar!*one dollar!* it was irritating. but. its like that if you want to make money :(
LOL. so. thats the way of the ppl in egypt is living.
This is just a brief description of my trip. (:

one thousand six hundred and four photograhs!
HAHA! i filled 2 of my 1 gb memory cards. LOL. i was the family's personal photograher at egypt. lalala~
