My dinner group was an American couple and 3 Canadian girls so we were a little confused what was happening. Turns out Lordco Auto parts from Vancouver (my home town!) had rented the Pyramids for a private show that night AND flow Canadian rocker Tom Cochrane over for a concert in front of the Pyramids!!!

... the group.<br><br>At one point the Columbians started teaching us dirty terms in Spanish. I looked across at Victor and said, "Man, I really didn't expect to be sitting on a beach on the Nile in Egypt learning how to say dirty things in Spanish from a bunch of drunk Columbians while practicing my Spanish...yeah, that's not how I envisioned this day of the trip."

Afterwards Jen and I decided to make use of the fact that we were downtown to go book my trip for Abu Simbel, Aswan and Luxor. At the travel agents Jen and I were asked if we wanted to attend, what we were told, an Egyptian wedding.

But with the conductor&#8217;s whistle blowing all the extras made it off, and as the train pulled out from the platform we were treated to some energetic singing and clapping from a massive group of wedding guests sitting on the ground of the platform, giving the bride and groom on the train alongside a rousing send-off.
