Egypt, U.A.E. 10 on

I and my husband is the greatest pleasure is to imagine the lives of the rich, "later in five million after a tour of the world" is our common ideals.

After years of efforts fail, we no longer fantasy, decided to start from the 2008 travelled first step. First select one of the four great ancient civilizations-----Egypt, Dubai airport transit, stopped by the U.A.E. stay 2 days. Feb. 9th, 2008, from Beijing began to look forward to in Egypt, U.A.E. 10 journey, 19 afternoon return to Beijing. 10 days of travel, like through the 5000 years of time tunnel, from 3000 years b.c. Pharaoh civilization, to the beginning of the 20th century the rise of the modern city in the desert, from the streets of Egypt ragged "uncompleted" to the Persian Gulf in the magnificent "yacht hotel" from Cairo street "mini donkey cart" to super luxury shopping mall in Dubai before red Ferrari, ancient and modern, poverty and extravagance and formed a strong contrast. 10-day trip to see, hear, feel, quite a lot, hope I can accurately describe the most real life, share with friends.

The first day of the Beijing-Dubai-Cairo

More than 5 points from Beijing, after 9 hours of flight, went to the Middle East-Dubai transport hub.

Terminal building, bright, clean, large and stylish. Here the duty-free shop is famous worldwide, commodities are also very rich, but because of the U.A.E. currency dinar has been implemented and pegged policies, the devaluation of the dollar's rapid results in Dubai import commodity price advantages in a gradually declining, expensive, however than Hong Kong and China still cheaper than. For example, I am familiar with cosmetics, Bristol Ouquan a man moisturizer domestic $ 450, where to buy about 240, Ms. olive oil night cream domestic $ 600, $ 410 here, L'Oreal eye cream domestic 200 Yuan, about $ 102.

Airport fast nor as domestic airport restaurants that are slaughtered, and unpalatable.

I ordered a salad, a grilled flour tortilla, a bottle of mineral water, the total spent 33 dinars (66 Yuan). Salad of taste is very special, green plants like coriander leaves cut into very fine, with a red small particles (like Garnet), rich aroma with acid; roasted Sesame bread out of sticky, which wrapped in seaweed powder, sweet, crisp, acid, fresh. I devoured spare bottom eat up, only to find forgotten photographs.

In Dubai Airport waiting 5 hours, sitting on a flight to Cairo, and 5 pm local time to arrive at more Cairo.

Meet our is a tall lanky, with glasses of Egypt guy. "My name is Harry des, Chinese name is Maud, Mao Mao, Zhu de, Zhou Enlai, the guide of Yan" waving a mouthful of Arab-Chinese started to introduce themselves.

Get on the bus, we proud to find this homemade "Yutong" bus, pride.

The tour started on Egypt to General information, the next few days I was on his words have a deeper experience and understanding, I'll describe in detail.

7 points more than in five-star hotel of CATARACT.

This is a more than three-story building of Garden Hotel. Back to room wash has been completed, we will have two Beijing time (Egypt and Beijing 6 hours time difference), but I have no kunyi. Out came the cheerful sound of music, original wedding in the garden. The bride walked in the front ranks, they are the musicians played opposite, lighting, cameraman, there is an older men are dancing. Followed by the long rows of women formed the procession, fat Aunty friends headscarf, around the black gowns, young girls wearing pretty scarf, wearing the most gorgeous dresses. See I am hiding from the edge with the team, aunt warmly invited me to join their team, around my waist, pointed at the beautiful bride, said to me that a bunch of Arabic and dulu, I guess she said "it was my niece", I said to her in English VERY BEAUTIFULL, I wonder if aunt could understand. Team went to the dining room at the door, I can't get in, waved and aunt farewell, watching the young bride, beautiful face, my heart has subtle on the inflow of sadness "she will be the man of his wife?"

Tour Maud en quote:

Egypt 1, "" we just have everything: development, developed, backward, and open, conservative, modern. "

2, in Egypt, do not ask why;

3, Egypt very little traffic light and Zebra, cross the street to a foreigner is the life of a challenge.

(This is my favorite word)

The second day of the Cairo-Alexandria-Cairo

7: 40 departure from the hotel, take the bus to go to Alexander.

Some are able to achieve this for, Maud en comrades never give a definite answer. "I hope that four hours to the time that Egypt.". For the Guide emphasizes "Egypt" time, we have always been puzzled.

The car turned Street, began to import the crowded streets.

Inclusion in the ass and a small break in the car, our "Yutong" just like a noble Prince. Sitting in the car a bit looking down the feeling of living beings.

Car slowly creeping, roadside or ride or walk of locals head back at us, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and our friendly and smiling and waving.

The road really didn't see a traffic light, the road out of town and not far away, but a good one-hour walk, a high-speed, similar to our national highway, in 12 point reached Alexandria before.

Alexandria in Egypt with "Eastern Mediterranean bride" reputation, you can imagine this is the one located in Egypt's North, to the beautiful city in the sea, being tour guides known as China's Shanghai.

Here are the magnificent Pompeii God column, of the seven wonders of the world — Alexandria Lighthouse ruins, the last King Farouk (the equivalent of China's Yuan Shi-kai) Palace--munzath garden. This city than Cairo to beautiful, clean, people are more open, fashionable. Eastern Mediterranean shore pair young men and women inLove and emotion.

Lunch in a local restaurant to enjoy a typical dinner of seafood: fish soup, grilled fish, squid cooked vegetables, there are traditional staple food in Egypt: Scones.

Oven to ride in the restaurant, red flames reflecting in chef handsome face, he very quickly a basket from hearth just got out of the spout smelled good, circular drum drum's cookies. See we all like his little cake, young face meet, innocent smile, he invited me to take pictures.

“Am I good?”

“You are handsome”

“you’ll remember me?”

“yes, I’ll show my friend”

7 point will start tonight African Cup final against Cameroon, Egypt.

Egypt men are a football fan, on the way back to Cairo, Maud en was restless. "I wish I could see the game". "Egypt can play over Cameroon?," I asked. I was not in football, but had heard of Cameroon have "African male lion". "Of course, the we can win Egypt!"

The car arrived at more than 8 points, in the restaurant outside roadside stands a small TV, several men sit or squat in there, not on the tour will also take care of meals to their profession.

It was not long before, the door to a cheering, Egypt team scoring, 1: 0. won the African Cup. Congratulations, dear Egypt!
