So the past few days I have not been on. Many of you may have wondered why, many may not have noticed, regardless, I feel like sharing with you part of my trip in Egypt which was the reason for my absence.



Day 1:
Pretty wierd day, I arrived at Sah El-Shamali at around 12 PM. I played with my cousins until around 7 PM and then we went to a swimming pool. At around 12 midnight, I went to Al-Marina, I stayed until 2 AM, and then went to my villa, where I was staying for the night.

Day 2:I wake up to shouts, there were ants all over the villa and all over my bed. My mom, dad, and I all had ants crawling on us. We got a guy to come, and we stayed at my aunt's villa for the day. When we went back, there was still around 5 colonies of ants all over my kitchen.

Day 3:From that day on, I went to my grandpa's house until now, which had no internet.

ants were walking all over you...I could imagine that easily....what scares em though is that I know from experience that the ants in Egypt are HUGE and red :

Good Luck

soundds anoying, howed the ants get there

It will most likley be from cracks on the wall, etc.

Not exactly sure, I think it had to do with the door being open half the day though

How could you sleep and the door is open!! (Thiefs and Robbers)

Flame, just to be clear, Sah el-Shalim is in Cairo or not?

I am sorry to hear about the ants.
What else interesting stuff have you seen in Egypt so far?

Sah el-Shamali is in Alexandria (I think)

Eh, this year's vacation was pretty uneventful, except I'm going to a wedding in Al-Balad tomorrow (relatives) and my 48 year old uncle is finally getting engaged

uneventful other than the ants i presume

Ants were also uneventful...god I hate ants.

Err...flame you do know that "Al Balad" means the "country side" and it is not a city...unless I am completely wrong...

You are wrong, and I know what it means, it is also a town

You had fun until no internet

Pretty much. And then I got DSL today

Ok, sorry flame, I didn't know...I'm not from Alexandria as you know, I am from Cairo

Also flame continue tell us about your 4th and 5th day.

And tell us how (traditional, maybe?) the Egyption marriage goes.

Simple,

1-Tell parents
2-Say surat "Al Fataha" *This makes them officail "Fiances"-Its a french word I can't find it parallel english word :
3- "Write the book" with a Shecik
4-Wedding
5-Done

Well, that's how movies always put it anyways...

{More Info.}

My 4th and 5th were the same. Oh and I missed the wedding, bro was sick adn I was tired. My uncle got engaged though.

Engaged? I thought it was his wedding, as in he was going to marry?

My uncle is going to get married...sometime. The wedding was for someone else in my family...I thought my uncle was getting married lol.

OK. What do you mean by write the book?
