My travelling adventures...

EEK!

Well we have finally booked Egypt - i will be doing 11 days at Hurghanda... and I have no idea how I am getting from my tour (which I'll end at Sinai) to Hurghanda - hoping it'll be easy to get from Sinai, to Dahab and catch the aquafoil across...? - we'll see... :) Now that I have booked actually thinking about what I am doing - wondering if i picked the right tour (doing imaginative traveller - sailtrek and sinai if you want to look it up...), if we are staying at the right place etc etc (we didn't have that many options since we booked late, so lots of the tours were booked etc)... anyhow - it is only money - bound to be fun cos it is a holiday so make the most of it - and surely it can't rain the whole time, after all it IS a desert...?!
Also went to the British Museum today - saw the Rosetta Stone, parts of the greek partheon etc etc - oodles of stuff there! And going to make my way to Greenwich tomorrow (finally) - it is a walk away from Karen and Neil's but haven't made it there yet... and not sure about going somewhere between now and Egypt - the money just spent on Egypt has left a bit of a void - thinking I might save it up til I do Europe all in one hit...
And it is... well I am not sure actually - I call it big fat lumps of snow... but it could be the british version of hail (really micro) - it floats down tho... - maybe the snowflakes get caught up with all the pollution in the air so end up in lumps! - anyhow it looks pretty either way :)
Later!

booking egypt...

Hi! Just a quick little note to let you know that karen and I are finally making our Egypt booking - I am doing a little 14day imaginative traveller tour round Egypt - going to Cairo, felucca on the Nile, Luxor, Dahab etc then meeting Karen at Hurghanda to do 7 days of relaxing...! - should be brilliant - can't believe i am saying this - but will be nice to laze on the beach in the warmth!
On my little walkies around London went along Drury Lane (isn't that where the gingerbread man came from??) and past Pratt St (is that the el cheapo place on the monopoly board?) - I could just be making it all up!!
I am hoping to pop over to Florence for a few days before I go to Egypt (Egypt starts on the 11th March) - see how i go... :)
