Dragonflies of Egypt tour (5)
19 July: Alexander Eastern Mediterranean-Summer Palace (Montaza Palace)-Pompeii shizhu morning 6: 30, we from the Movenpick Hotel JISA Pyramids hotel, to Alexander 3.5 hours. Along the way, the Sun is fierce and the curtains are also irresistible heat waves, the seat by the window of my entire was the sun shines, had to wear a sunhat, sunglasses and you feel a little funny. When you arrive at a rest stop, I get to walk, the rest stop comparing clean, also selling some swimwear, shoes and hats, and so on, there is a sandy for children play on the swings, seesaw and a rocking chair. Because it's still early, some stores have not opened the door, a play with local music video shop has drawn our attention, Egypt music and Xinjiang music is like, to me this sounds blind, there is no difference between my colleague like very much, I bought a CD retain Memorial. Enter Alexander city, I feel the city's different. The long coastline, pristine Eastern Mediterranean and European style of Alexander bridge is a European-style with a romantic and relaxing. This is a natural tropical storm has swept down the sea water slides, several-meter-high tower, which makes us excited, all want to go to leisure. We visited the Eastern Mediterranean in summer resort-the summer palace, the summer palace named Monza Tower Palace, is Alexander Earth period last King's Palace, in 1952 years ago has been a Royal family's summer in the summer. It covers an area of 100 hectares, surrounded, unique, and used cleverly designed, European, Eastern Mediterranean-oriented appearance, a hot weather paradise!, I am not too much attention to these, directly to the Eastern Mediterranean beach, cant wait to shoes, feet soaking in the Eastern Mediterranean. Eastern Mediterranean very clean, sandy shore, thin, but not white, immersed in the water of the sand a little foot, but not pain. At that time just flood tide, there is a risk that security personnel around the beach stop us into the sea, had to shoot some photographs fill your belly. At noon we went to a local Arab restaurant, don't know is adapted to the local cuisine, or close to the sea, feel the food delicious mango juice, it is also good. Eat well after dinner, some people see that there is still time, decided to restaurant across from the beach to play, the result is imparted Egypt's traffic. The seaside road is wide, approximately 6 Road, when they went through three road, just want to continue to the former, being tour guides found, hurried stop. But the past is easy to difficult, I saw the car a car after bus passes, fast, and there are no traffic lights, cross the street. One would like to test the results of the crossing, the driver does not ignore Egypt, almost hit, the tour guide was not severe, call the ' stop '. After about 15 minutes, they are safe to return. Pompeii stone pillar in Alexander's old town, around the House was broken and the narrow streets, also see the old trolley bus. Local children particularly cute, shake their hand said ' Hello ', see we beat them, and they have assumed positions let us shoot freely. Pompeii ruins of the stone retention, only 22 m high stone and two granite Sphinx. It seems also in mining, a bit of a mess, generally look at the stone columns and Sphinx photo, before they left. When you have been to Cairo is in the evening, we want to take this evening cruise tour the world-famous Nile. Us to the shore still early to see a lot of Chinese people, there is a group of people playing cards, a question that is coming from Anhui. 8: 00 in the evening, we went to a place called ' the Nile Crystal ' five-star luxury cruise ship is the sunset, the Nile is sunset photos with anger, wave after wave of the water is layered, previously only in photographs, magazines and television see picture is rendered in the eyes of the Nile, I was deeply attracted to curvaceous, obsessive. Cruise ship, drinks on eat buffet, dinner at its own expense during the period was also performing, belly dancing and Sufi dance. Belly dancing mother is not a local Egypt, seemingly Russia, Frank jumped by insurgents, commercial flavor is too strong, but the Sufi dance can look. Skip Sufi dance is the Arabs, approximately 40 a few years, it began to wander, changing position, he dresses are large, with several layers, go to go to, there is a layer of the skirt to the head, and according to the rhythm of the music, his hands and playing with his head on the skirt, and quickly became the parcel cry baby, it's wonderful! July 20: mosque-Khan Khalili market actually, our trip is to visit the mosque, but kind of tour guides in order to allow us to experience the local culture, lead we visited a mosque. Islam provides a woman cannot reveal their beautiful body and hair, so when we went in a cloak himself wrapped up, I feel like the movie "the da Vinci Code" in the wear black cloak, a bit strange. Tour guide and we explain their prayers and gestures that I have not listened to, just think of this mosque is quiet, and bright pink carpet forming a strong contrast, but also to seek to a point of balance. This mosque has a dedicated area attracted my attention, yet and so I asked the guide told us that there is dedicated to women's prayer area, the original men's prayer to separate!, guided tours with our consent to paper sedge and flavor to go shopping outlet store. In these two shops have speak Chinese staff on their history and authenticity, and start their own bawled boast stock. According to the online experience, we sent a team leader and their owner doesn't allow it, the last paper sedge to 4% off the regular price, US $ per ml essence 0.6 deal. In the paper sedge can let shop with hieroglyphics and write their names, but to offer additional charges, in General, I EGP 10 to 6 El pound deal. Dinner at the famous Khan Khalili market, it is a big market, there are multiple zones, both designed for tourists travel merchandising, local residents like to buy various commodities. We are in the market around a circle, a little Egypt businessmen to do business in a way, the active recruitment of enthusiasm, sky offer is their characteristics. We at Khalili market only 1.5 hours of shoppingTime, in order to prevent we got lost, the guide just let us in a slightly larger commercial Street, I walked to a Rameses II statue, ran the street stalls, the quality of all is not afraid to flattered. Finally, I go into the inside Lane, finally saw a satisfactory, and bargaining, EGP from 150 to 30 EGP fully took me an hour, really tired! time compact, I did not then continue shopping. Arrived at Doha Airport has 4: 30 p.m., the plane took off and 2 hours, check in, checked baggage, access to the airport, I left 135 EGP has not used up at the airport's duty-free shop, I had Pocket nor for several laps, finally I settled on a famous brand in Egypt Asfour crystal-pyramid (with Nai fun petiti statues), $ 30, when I use the Daniel pounds to pay, the clerk should use Exchange rate 6: 00 p.m., for the hell of me, I don't have the time, had to be dropped. In the check in time, the airport employees and I said baggage to Shanghai Pudong airport, and then gave me a registration card, I was a bit puzzled, I want to Doha turn to Shanghai, there should be two registration cards, see other colleagues and only one, I went in. 20 minutes later, there is an airport employees come from another registration cards. I got another, seeing that the Doha-Cairo's registration card, so handle it, let me go back to Cairo? ask the next companion, they get is Doha-Shanghai boarding passes. Wrong wrong!!

The supervisor said: "do not be alarmed, this is often mistakes ... "My colleagues was to complaints, said:" by so many of the aircraft, had never come across such a situation ... ". Finally, the plane took off before we got the "Doha-Shanghai" registration card, coming home again.
