Alexandria, Al Iskandariyah, Egypt emaratna8... carriage. We paid five us dollars for a thirty-minute ride. Not bogus. We went back to the peninsula sticking out into the Mediterranean for some shisha and tea and hung out there, chatting up some of the little kids running around and playing, until it was time to get back to the train station for the ride back. We finally arrived, exhausted, at our hotel in Cairo at about 1 am. <br><br>It was a wonderful day.

Alexandria, Egypt melano... were not so amazed here as the gardens certainly looked rather run down but it was pleasant to walk a while in the sea air and watch Egyptian families playing on the beach.

Alexandria, Egypt kingstravelAfter an early morning departure from Siwa we began the long journey to Alexandria. We were traveling north to the Mediterranean coast and thankfully the roads were in a much better condition than those on the way to Siwa. We made a stop at Al Alamein War Cemetery en route, which was a memorial to the conflict there in July 1942 and the resting place of countless Allied forces. I have to confess that the battle of Al Alamein was a part of ...

alexandria, Egypt asciThe old coastal city of Alexandria was my home this weekend. I say home, because I did what most Alexandrians probably do on the weekend - sleep and eat. Yes, there are some amazing museums. Yes there is a fort. Yes, there is the rebirth of the ancient world-renowned Alexandria Library. But I spent most of my time flat on my back, dreaming about some guy with money in his shoes. It may ...
