A Farewell to Egypt


I have loved Egypt, the temples, all of the antiquities, really.  I've loved the young children so eager to speak English with us.  I really liked our tour guide Khaled and have his email address is anyone is planning a trip there, you could contact him.  I really didn't like the endless haggling.  I thought I'd come home with some interesting fabrics, embroideries, etc., but trying to buy anything became a major hassle.  The 20 scarves I bought on our last morning in Aswan took two different venders and about 45 minutes to accomplish.  Mark and Stewart spent 20 minutes on 3 teeshirts.  And I couldn't find any Egyptian cotton!!
