  • Dahab & Nuweiba - Snorkeling and the Red Sea Ghost TownSo I departed from Cairo on an overnight bus trip to Dahab on the Sinai Peninsula, my body still riddled with dozens of itchy mosquito bites and my eyes heavy after having lost so much sleep battling the ravenous blood-suckers.

  • Luxor and the Valley of the KingsThe Valley of the Kings is a place I’ve been wanting to visit ever since I learned about the pharaohs’ tombs in a history course I once took in CEGEP (It was most likely one of the few classes Posted by malmn in Bloggin' N Globetrottin' | Apr 6, 2010
  • Lesson learnedAfter that faint abdominal discomfort stirring me in the early hours, I breifly maintained a vain hope that it was only hunger, as I'd skipped dinner.... Like I said, vain hope. Over the balcony at day break I took more Posted by Martynjane in Marty and Jane | Apr 3, 2010
  • Visiting friends and the Pyramids in CairoIstanbul was an amazing city with fantastic history with awesome sites to match, but now we were on our way to Egypt, which boasts some of the world’s oldest and greatest history of all and its most famous tourist venues.

  • Return to Cairo - Mummies and the Hostel MasacreFirst day back in Cairo, I saw a woman in the middle of downtown eating icecream. Not worthy of a mention in a blog one might say, but she was wearing a full burkha at the time - just try Posted by joshuag in Joshua's World Odyssey | Mar 31, 2010
  • Luxor - Tombs, Temples and a Sand StormFallen a bit behind with these blogs... but here I go again... Even though Cairo boasts the pyramids at nearby Giza, Saqqara and Dahshur, Luxor is easily Egypt's sight-seeing capital with a large concentration of tombs, temples and museums within a Posted by joshuag in Joshua's World Odyssey | Mar 31, 2010
  • Aswan & Abu Simbel - Blend in Like An EgyptianThe 12 hour overnight train journey from Cairo to Aswan was quite comfortable despite the fact I had a seat and not a berth on one of the fabled tourist sleeper trains that everyone recommends. Compared to the trains in Posted by joshuag in Joshua's World Odyssey | Mar 17, 2010
  • A life abroadAs I speed the next few years travelling the world seeing new things both good and bad I will record them here in my travel blog. Posted by kathrynnet in Feeling the breeze of change | Mar 16, 2010
  • A trip to AlexandriaI was very excited at the prospect of spending part of my school holiday in Alexandria with 3 of the Egyptian teaching assistants from work. We don't get much opportunity to talk during the school day and I really enjoy Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Mar 15, 2010
  • Cairo - Pyramids and Sheesha PipesI'll skip ahead just a little and start with this photo... I saw the Pyramids of Giza!! Ok, back to the beginning... After so many years of dreaming about it, I am finally Posted by joshuag in Joshua's World Odyssey | Mar 12, 2010
  • Africa Egypt is hot but has many interesting places you can visit. One of those places are the Pyramids of Giza. The pyramids of Giza is also called the pyramid of Khufu and the pyramid of Cheops. The full name of Posted by ddougherty in around the world | Mar 8, 2010
  • Dahab Dahab was meant to be a three-day stop to do some diving and to chill out, but quickly turned into nine blissful days, where we forgot about time (and our mounting hotel bill!). Posted by JacChalky in Jac & Chalky's Excellent Adventure | Mar 3, 2010
  • Alexandria and Cairo We arrive in Alexandria feeling a bit run-over… tired from a long 8-hour journey in a bus, still more than a little dodgy from our run-in with food poisoning (we came to the conclusion i Posted by JacChalky in Jac & Chalky's Excellent Adventure | Mar 2, 2010
  • Western Deserts - Luxor to Alexandria OK, that’s a lie… the deserts of Egypt certainly do have lots of sun and sand, but there was no sign of Andrew Ridgely at all. Our travels West from the Nile Valley involved hours of Posted by JacChalky in Jac & Chalky's Excellent Adventure | Mar 1, 2010
  • Luxor to Aswan school trip When I was asked this January, whether I would be happy to go on a four day trip down the Nile on a 4 star cruise ship with the nicest group of 9/10 year olds I've ever Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Feb 28, 2010
  • EgyptFrom Heathrow to Cairo, you really could not have a bigger contrast in airports really. Glitz, Harrods and blissfully organised to smelly, decrepit, army personnel and the passport control guy blasting a dart. Stamp. Welcome to Egypt.

  • Aswan to Luxor Arriving in Aswan, tired, dirty, and with kinks in places we didn’t know you could get kinks (overnight trains in Egypt are a necessary evil unfortunately) we finally embark on our few d Posted by JacChalky in Jac & Chalky's Excellent Adventure | Feb 6, 2010
  • An unexpectedly cold winterHow I gloated when I said goodbye to my friends in Taiwan, telling them I was about to move to the land of eternal sunshine. While I sat shivering in the midst of summer in England last year, my dad Posted by lucid in A New Life in Egypt | Feb 4, 2010
  • Drifting Slowly Down the NileIt was now time to visit perhaps my most anticipated place in Egypt the mighty narcissistic temple of Ramses II at Abu Simbel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_simbel)(a train and convoy ride away from my current location) whilst also taking in Posted by rhinoc in Trav vs. The World | Jan 29, 2010
  • A New Decade... Egyptian Style Happy New Year! Well... that is where we are up to... After the reasonably quiet NY celebrations with our new travel buddies, its straight into the nitty-gritty of Egypt, namely te Posted by JacChalky in Jac & Chalky's Excellent Adventure | Jan 26, 2010
  • Valley of the KingsAfter the long ride here on a very slow and painful train ride I finally arrived in Luxor, home to the temple of Luxor, Karnak and the Valley of the Kings. As far as antiquities go it is hard to Posted by rhinoc in Trav vs. The World | Jan 19, 2010
  • The Wonder of the Ancient WorldFor this blog I really need to start off by telling the story of my journey from Turkey to Cairo, a seemingly easy task that somehow turned into a bit of a mission. It all started so well with the Posted by rhinoc in Trav vs. The World | Jan 17, 2010
  • DahabInitially, Dahab was a Bedouin fishing village. I suppose what put it on the map is the diving, which is apparently spectacular. The snorkeling was spectacular but that's as far as I went. We arrived in Dahab Posted by jenofear in Jen's Blog | Jan 6, 2010
