  • A night at the Cairo Opera House My first trip to the opera came courtesy of my student's mother, who works for the Cairo Opera House. I have always liked the idea of being a fan of opera, since it implies a certain amount of culture, wealth Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Nov 17, 2009
  • Escaping the city Everyone at the TAFL centre seems to be perenially tired at the moment. But no matter, we've got our mid-term break in a week's time and quite a few of us from Manchester will go to Dahab, in the Sinai. Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Nov 12, 2009
  • Cairo, Egypt K.. One of those wonderful people I've met from my Beijing trip last August has invited me to come to Cairo.. Okay, now you ask.. Cairo? As in Cairo, Egypt? Yes everyone, I got this lovely and tempting invite Posted by Bella_Luna in Salve a Tutti | Nov 10, 2009
  • A warm November morning One thing that can be said for the part of Al Rehab where I live, is that the atmosphere is peaceful. There is the occasional very noisy truck, motorbike delivery man or child screaming from one of the balconies above, Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Nov 7, 2009

  • A New Mother Goose and A Changed Alexandria All bunged up, sitting in my room wearing three layers and a huge sarong around my neck. This is not normal behaviour here. Most of the time I'd be hot if only wearing a strap top. So it's Katie's turn Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Nov 2, 2009
  • Alex to Cairo to Alex to Cairo It seems I just can't get enough of Cairo at the moment. I've been lucky to have a couple of visitors so here I am about to head to Cairo again for the weekend to play tourguide before bringing Joe Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Oct 29, 2009
  • The Girl from Ibrahimiyya Mum arrived a few days ago and today we went to visit Rashid, also known as Rosetta (where the Rosetta Stone was found), a small town 45 minutes eastwards, and along the Nile. Lots of small, unpaved market streets, donkeys, Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Oct 23, 2009

  • Probably the best teaching job in the world! After a two year break from primary teaching I was a little nervous to take on what I considered to be a stressful and overbearing job in an environment where I didn't entirely fit in. That's what teaching represented while Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Oct 21, 2009
  • Bad Tourist It’s been really nice living in Alexandria for a few weeks, and - despite the constant stream of people practically lining up to say ‘Welcome!’ in the street – no longer feeling like a passing visitor. So, last weekend came Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Oct 14, 2009
  • 1st week at the zoo! School started last Sunday and for the first two days the children were quiet and unassuming but I'm starting to see their personalities coming out gradually. I like most of them and especially like the 'naughty' boy so I may Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Oct 9, 2009
  • EGYPT I’m on the second leg of a three leg route to Cairo – hour stop off in Hong Kong and this finds me 5.36 mins away from London. Looks like I’m somewhere over Russia. It was a really Posted by skyewilson in Where on earth is Skye? | Oct 8, 2009

  • Released I've lost track, but I think today was my fourth trip to the court in Manshaya, downtown Alex (a fact that probably has something to do with Egyptian bureaucracy). It's a crumbling, dirty building of a bygone age that Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Oct 1, 2009

  • Down by the sea I really really love living by the sea. This evening, I went for a walk at sunset along a stretch of the Corniche, just a stone's throw from our apartment in Sporting. [img=http://photos Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Sep 27, 2009
  • The first month living in Al Rehab When I came to Egypt on holiday about 5 years ago I stayed in Sharm El Sheikh and spent 2 days in Cairo, seeing the sites. I have always been a person with a short attention span Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Sep 26, 2009
  • Head spinning Things seem to be getting more and more confusing. I really don't think I have the mental energy or the turn of phrase to narrate the events of the last few days so if you want to find out what happenned, Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Sep 26, 2009
  • Katie and the burst appendix So yesterday at 2.30am Katie comes into my room complaining of terrible pains in her abdomen, crippled over and sounding like she was going into labour. To my untrained and unscientific mind, I naively thought that maybe she just needed Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Sep 24, 2009

  • What is the time? Yesterday was crazy. It was the first day of Eid. Apparantly in Alexandria this is a time when every (pre) pubescent boy comes out to play downtown. We got so much hassle: --"Hello! Welcome in Egypt! What is the time? Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Sep 21, 2009
  • Moving in; the Highway Code Moving in ---- On Tuesday Katie and I moved into a really nice flat in an area called Sporting. It's very near the Corniche (the road that runs along the seafront) and about a ten minute drive eastwards from the Posted by revel in In Alexandria | Sep 17, 2009
  • Egypt Whilst the details of traveling are most often boring and not worth writing about, I feel our journey from Cairo airport to our hostel gives an interesting first insight into Egypt. We arrived in Cairo at about midnight where Posted by S Pirouet in African Adventures | Sep 14, 2009
