And Life Begins Again

A really cool tailor on the street that I saw in Luxor Me in traditional galabeya for a party aboard the ship.

Me getting married along with three other girls to the same man :D ahahh traditional wedding, I think not...

At the Edfu temple I think, though I may be wrong. Anyway you can see the heiroglypics on the pilar behind us.

The perfect AFS picture...just watch and it will show up there! Though it's kinda bad quality here. Marufsh le?

Well, though my title is "and life begins again" it doesn't really for another week. I am still on mid-year break Al7. I spent the day in So5na with my parents and my aunt and her mother. It was very peaceful and relaxing. Gibt some sand and nice sea shells kamain.

Over all the trip to Luxor/Aswan/Hurgada was amazing and I have a lot of good memories from it! Most of them were from wandering outside of the tourist market areas into the local parts of town. There we saw some cabbages being sold that were as big as me curled into a ball, a street tailor (first one I've ever seen contrary to my Dad's belief), a konafa topping maker, and some really nice people! Ah, I love Egypt. I had another adventure with public buses, it was interesting to say the least. The greatest thing in my opinion is that if I were put into situations where I dont know how to get home and end up on a bus that you don't have any idea where it is heading in the U.S. I would freak out. But here, I just kinda go with the flow, and realize that I will make it home somehow and in the mean time I should enjoy the adventure and talk to people. So thats what I did. I heard a couple life stories and got a taxi ride from Sher3a Sala7 Salem to Attaba metro for 1Le!!! AMAZING! That was also when I decided that I am still overpaying for taxis! Though I also think that that was less than it should have been. THanks to the unnecessary generosity of Egyptians I got home on 3 Le that night.

I still need to:

take a Tok Tok

explore Midan Al Lubnan

take a micro to 6-0

check out Midan KitKat fi Imbaba

eat camel

see the camel market

and many other things I am too tired to think of and too lazy to go get my list of...
