Jessica in Egypt (2)

The second day

Accommodation with breakfast, no guests in the dining room, is the owner's own family, father, wife, brother.

Restaurant on the second floor, with balcony, to have balcony, view at a glance around the square. In the middle of the square stands the founder of the National Bank of Egypt Khabur, big waves, more like a statue of Police directing traffic.

Go to the South the liberation square, the road to very strange path here, also confused are to go.

Give up, fight, go to Hariri market.

Good luck, stopped a car for playing table.

Drivers speak too early, Hariri has not opened. Anyway, first past the fare of $ 8, this is my play in Egypt to the cheapest rental. Calculate today is new year's Eve, the year of the last day, tomorrow is the start of the cycle, I do not know also does not have such good luck.

Get off at the place opposite to the market in Hariri, a large mosque door.

Go in, no, no, only the door 2 personal sitting. A gown of proactive invitation and took me in and visit. His English Basic does, yiyiyaya pointing, like a dumb desperate. I can't bear to see him stuck on the way, can only nod desperately. See I know, he's probably think this set of language systems more effective, so I worked. I gave life points a few head, however, soon I will know that this very serious consequences, I quickly decided to put an end to this kind of hypocritical.

I offered to interrupt his yiya explain, let him lead me on the evangelist John Tower, and then, all the way to begin taking pictures that make him put attention to lead the way.

He first led me to see the tomb of Prophet, then, I want to go to the Alliance at the Tower, he put out — to tip!

I want to forget it, even if you buy tickets, find a 5 dollar money but unfortunately because he saw me a fastener for the bag $ (in fact, I was in Shanghai to cattle-for-dollar, specifically to 1 US dollar notes, a total of 80 sheets for tipping), hard to 10 dollars.

As the book says, to small, don't open the money, otherwise it will be more money (lesson one of Egypt's tourism experiences).

On the Alliance at the Tower, Hariri's Islamic Cairo.

Unfortunately, Cairo is the world's most polluted cities, and is a winter morning, distant everything annihilation in morning fog.

Back up the book, just know this is the famous Al-Azhar mosque, a city with thousand-year history of the mosque.

Out the door, to the side of the alley.

To the outside and feel our so-called modernization of the road, just let people see that as the century Avenue, Shanghai, the wide, wide enough to alarm; this long, long get desperate. Chinese people often do is let the leading stand in height to hand pointing jiangshan, rather than let the people be able to design an in-depth contact life and convenient facilities. Century Boulevard is driver Avenue, you no courage to go, you can only get through.

But the immediate small road, but it can evoke human heart want to integrate into feeling, can cause people to want to feel himself a walk.

I think this is the so-called "better city, better life" really means is located!

Just open the door of the shop, send pie man bags spread, fruit stalls, selling everything from shopping, the day started, from time to time someone friendly and warm and I said hello to the foreigners.

I will also stretch neck and do your best to find fresh.

This is not, an uncle is sitting at the gate and on the road 2 Guy across the street chat (thanks to the streets, to use the loudspeaker), eh, the uncle on the night of the sweater Nirvana with badges? again, this residential door on the police! I asked before, really is police Uncle Jesse, Egypt police even winter sweater uniform.

Hurry up and told the young man, me and sweater uniform police photo together.

So feel free to go blind, came to the Azhar University, the guard kindly invited me to go in, but I want to go to the Azhar Park, did not go in.

There are a few laps to go blind, watching the distant hills, it is estimated that the Park, but just can't seem to find the way, it's all too easy to go back to the road, even without direction.

When I looked, a car stopped me and asked me where I said to the Park.

Drivers motioned to me to get me to. This is not a taxi driver, look like the warm, think this is not to my cycle, should luck or you can just ask a sound: FOR FREE? see he nodded, I glad ground vehicles, also took a Chinese knot to him.

The car turned a corner, eyes suddenly showed a big castle — Oh, Saladin.

Now that you have seen, I changed my mind, is going to take me to the driver. The castle is very large, around a circle, to the door stop. I just want to get off, only to truckers a stretch, I said that the MONEY is not a FREE? he firmly shook his head, 20 MONEY!?. NO, 10 Yuan, I didn't forget to bargain.

I was at the airport for $ 100, now left a 100 EGP and a few coins.

I took out to him, he's looking to me after $ 70, you will no longer refuse to change. Your money! this point road to $ 30. But he refused.

Chest! in Egypt in the second lesson: change, be sure that you put the small change for you, then turn the whole money to him.

Also, I now have encountered the problem is, if the tickets are $ 70, I have no money, and even drinking water had no money.

The Castle gate there is a section of road, roadside someone who happens to be a cattle.

Oh, and did not expect this Egypt tourism is quite developed in Austria, how to really want to tourists think Nirvana?

But don't be pleased too early to ask the exchange rate, 1: 5.1, see you a big head, I change there 5.47 airport.

This cattle plausible argument: you have to fight to the city's transportation. Upside he is here to make transportation price difference!

I ignored him, and continue into it.

There is a car park, roadsideDriver, the front asked where is your money, drivers eager to take me to a small shop owners and take your money. When it comes to 5.2 never give in. I heart a cross, today is neither eat nor drink, do not change your black money.

Fortunately, tickets $ 50, $ 20, I can drink water.

Saladin is Arab hero, was born in 11 ** years, originally built the castle is to Crusaders, as several generations of the King's Palace.

There are three mosques, most notably Mohamed Ali mosque, is also the main tourist attractions of the team. There are also several museums, including the Police Museum, military museums, horse-drawn carriage Museum, etc.

07 years here, but in a limited time only at the Ali mosque.

This time I take a good look for it again.

Here is the travel team will come to, and also students of the tour.

I just got in the door soon encountered a group of pupils, singles in surrounded me, HELLO, HELLO, barking, timidity of girls is concealed behind.

Military Museum is divided into indoor and outdoor, outdoor was aircraft gun tanks, free climbing.

The rooms are about Egypt's history. In time, if you want to bring your camera, additional charge of $ 2. Watch them neither receipt, malicious eyes, I suspect that is produced by fees, the camera, karate. Guard your heart not to encourage me to take the camera in, say, as long as the $ 2 $ 2. Can I just don't like!

Yet, I feel the best smile reflects El to Middle East war is completely ignored the history of sharp picture jumble, variety, Egypt's heroic troops to victory.

The fall of the Sinai Peninsula, later how to peace for land of history, seems not reflected. Oh, my dear motherland is very common in common!

The castle is very big, I strolled to the East, there are few, but also with tourism, 2007 I have walked through. teams

There was a mosque, a square, there is the ancient city walls. Saw a small fan on the walls, door didn't go in, and then secretly along a wall, a castle that keep up. Walls not wide, one side is the outer wall, and the other side is not cover non-stop, farther, inevitably some fear in my heart. Finally reaches the highest point on the top of the Castle, outward looking when I come to the road, a car to car. Hastily made several sheets, gingerly back.

Down under discovery with the underground passage, by the way look.

Channel is half underground, through narrow vented through into the Sun, causing the shadow in front of many. People sometimes really "do" attractions too many people, constantly complain, then you want to find a quiet; now I entered the empty — no one outside, the inside is more a place where there are no people, but for no reason at all to have a fear of the fear of the fear of hell. Please return the original road, back ground layer, and then from the door, then breathed like air.

Back to military Museum Square, a large group of men and women students in tanks and artillery climb climbing, play harder.

A package of Islamic hijab girl climbed into a statue on the POSE, Mr. meekly when her photographer.

A big yard to the left-hand side of the last haven't seen corner, there is greater East Castle.

Along the steps of homeopathy, to the door I met a girl sitting there (it really is a girl, 13, 4-year-old school students face), they think about the past, but she stopped me hand, then put the Palm of the hand over-$ 10.

If she looks older women, maybe I'll give money, but the eyes of the girl is a little girl, and Egypt, from the arrival of approximately 36 hours of lessons told me that in this country, as in China, on everything you want to ask a "dead wood"?

So I also reach: TICKET?

She shook his head, occupying the door, then ignored me.

At this point, there is a more or less the same size up the girl took to eat. She asked a few of the girls at the door, and then gave me a look, sit down, put the last channel blocked, and then 2-gu, ate me aside.

Calculate! Castle is at the street, and then look at the broken car on the road, I won't let you clip.

Go backward, go.

Next to the courtyard, just saw a service Pavilion, located on the front, the Bureau asked: here is another of the attractions tickets?.

Are you sure? Yes. So you see there, why there's a girl to collect the money? he looked upwards: Oh where to collect the money. Didn't you say don't charge? there.

I rely on, not so with open eyes lie, catch up with our people and ZF.

Watch their age difference, I doubt the girl is his daughter, and earn extra money here.

Finally, it comes back to the hood 07 years had visited the mosque, which is still so many people, most of them are elderly tourists from Europe, old couples are helped each other, although very warm affection, but I guess I'm not willing to wait so old before they go abroad, then have a look at least one eye, the world's last visit.

Stay on the square, noting that women should have here masked over Iran.

07 years led by Egypt tour has been so interpreted her headscarf reasons, just that they have family education for girls. And now so many masked, estimates are that they have a better family upbringing? but at the front of the man, looked and not up to much. But the next one (usually 3 months), it might be a pretty cute, looks nothing like their father.

Out, a small door person into one, Zoo, turned out to be a photographer, there are a variety of Saladin uniforms for visitors make-up photographs, watching the people interested in Egypt, Oh!, OH at the initial stage.

It's been 12 point, my phone still displays "no service".

Out front, ' China Mobile network has its own queryMobile phones, has opened an international roaming. So, now the problem is: your money, put through the mobile phone.

The Castle gate, soliciting a lot of taxi, find a willingness to accept the price of 10 Yuan, to return to the hotel near the street, looking for a shop to change money, Exchange can find 5.475, then calls, let domestic friend help me find out my cell phone there through roaming.

Played 10 minutes, to $ 26.

After several stores and saw a small game room, the door of the car, sell local mobile phone card.

I think there is no, you buy a card. Ask a sales card guy, at about $ 70, $ 50 per card fee, $ 20 fee. And domestic long-distance is $ 12.99 per minute, SMS 2 element, only 10 can be send text messages.

I let the guy opened the show me the numbers, and so on, finally put the SIM card from the card fold down, my heart has never said, and so on, so I finally try.

I once again to set, for the first time, try manually searching (because iPhone bought 2 months). Oh Oh! success, network found! I immediately on the young man said I'm sorry, I don't have to buy a card. But I worry that he has opened the package?, however, my concern is superfluous, the young eyes didn't blink, blink it said OK. Put everything into one package, and done.

Oh, and every day 315! you see people that care! at that moment, all the previously on Egypt's bad impression, and now vanished, Egypt people is very friendly! "in order to express my regret that I bought him a bottle in the freezer for beverage-4 $ up.

Next, I can safely go I plan the next place, Coptic Cairo.

Popular science, according to research is the authentic ancient Egypt descent, modern Egypt mostly Arabs, who became the Coptic minority, their level of education is relatively high, Christian.

Metro station and alight at Saint George, $ 1.

I took the book, counting station, follow the crowd out of the station, the old Cairo HA! in the doorway.

A travel team stand in a wreckage, the guide tells a story.

Control books, the original this is Babel — a Roman fortress built in the 2nd century, next to the Coptic Museum, tickets $ 50, there's nothing impressive. Out the door and found the crowd have dissipated, I don't know which direction I saw a couple of Egypt in the direction to the side, they did in the past.

Road horizons dirty, odours and more heavy, in fact, it is the smell of roadside toilet anywhere.

The houses on each side of the road is obviously very worn, a junction, tea shops full of locals, left and right sides of various shops also chat, will know, there is really no alien life, generally here. Everyone looked at me, look, I like the mount in the back, but still managed to squeeze out some friendly smile, Zhuang ventured photos. Finally, it wanted to.

Back to the road, I am not going into it, a broad Avenue, empty, nor even a car.

From the direction of the feeling that I should go through this street, then turn to the left, and to the road when forming a square, go back to the Metro station.

This is neither street trees, nor is there any shops on both sides of the street, are all in the fence, Feith.

Finally, in half of the road where I saw a door, a guard. Saw someone come out, I went in, what geophysical prospecting. Eyes flicking the guard, he didn't lift head. I put cooked eat old books old door to do, we proudly enter. See a fork in the road, quickly turned into, then stopped and looked about, this is where dead wood Nirvana?

Hide away in the Woods is the cross of the decoration of houses, the gate closed.

The growth of weeds at the roadside, indicating that there is not much between people, these rooms look very good, not for dead wood are people Nirvana?

Straight saw a big house with a door for vertical, carved with family pedigree, I suddenly realized what had happened — here are the necropolis Oh gosh, the Tomb built as tall and housing, probably only here.

This tall houses, well shaped streets, or placed at the entrance gate of flowers, and just now I see the gutter is two of the world (it is, indeed, two of the world).

Then, I started some creeps inside, people not only Crow in tree quack noise, increased somewhat desolate.

Oh, this evening in absolute to the human life of Oh!

Later, after turning to know, here is the Orthodox cemetery, and reminder: single ladies watch face exposed here.

OH, sell cake!

Continue walking along the wall, corner, or a long wall.

I'm desperate, but if you call the rental, and don't know the specific position now, where open. I am afraid of myself became a lamb, bite and went on.

Finally to the front of the junction, HA! here are all the travel team.

In fact, come out from the Coptic Museum, I walked in the opposite direction, and the main Chapel and the old city here. Although very tired, but now my tourist has only just begun.

In the old town entrance elephant into the road, I thought just a spot, but it was found that this is just a gateway to the new world of corridor, the narrow sides with the CD.

In the past, many streets, like those in China, ancient villages

Time has been in the evening, visitors are to go, I drove last entered the Church, then, a thief and looking East look at sunset, this will definitely make people Kiss, vigilance.

Can I also buguanbugu, as long as you can take the slit, I have to drill, look out.

After the Church, walk in the alley.

Three are preparing to eat pie Pack mixed vegetable in Egypt, warmly invited me to eat with. Although I very much want to try, however, it is estimated that they are migrant worker class, or declined the offer.

Deep down in the alley, saw a door open and entered a look, what is just

Just visit the graveyard, the original here also has an export, and then I see, here is the auto channel, otherwise alley residents rely on what transport things and travel?

The color dark down on that day, I finally finished my strange kopt tour, back to the city centre.
