Alexandria

Kathy booked us into a dodgy hotel in Masruh Matruh overlooking a pristine mediteranean and suffered for it when the water went off in the midle of her shower leaving her all soaped up and nowhere to rinse "Glen! Daniel! someone help me!"


The next day we jumped on a bus to Alexandria and finally found a beer.


We spent the day visiting the Roman Amphitheatre, Pompeys Pillar and the Catacombs where Daniel received a kiss from a strange old man in the street.


We are currently in the middle of a 3 day religious festival and things are pretty full on.
My poopies are now solid!

Looks like Lybia didnt do you any harm (how many weeks piss free?) Did you get to the Pyramids? Not doing to good on the footy tips but I did get 5 last week. Hope you have an awesome xmas And New year.

don't go thinking it was easy! 8 long, tough, dry days in the desert. Alexandria was like an oasis with beer instead of water. Done the pyramids. Giza pyramids, Step pyramid, Bent pyramid, Red pyramid, dozens of other mini pyramids. Now we are going mad with tombs in Luxor. Chrissy looks like being in Istanbul, if we can find accommodation, and who knows where for NY.
merry christmas to you & yours
