Alexandria


Yesterday we were in Alexandria, the capital of Egypt when the Greeks and then the Romans ruled Egypt. This is Cleopatra territory. It is the second largest city in Egypt after Cairo.

I went on a lengthy bus trip to El Alamein, the site of one of the great battles of WWII.

Granny Lynne went shopping in the local stalls at the pier, but as usual, she didn't buy anything.

Only picture is of QV at her dock in Alexandria. It gives you a rough idea how big the ship is.

We are at sea again as I write this on our way to Turkey.

We have 4 straight days of stops beginning tomorrow, 2 in Turkey and 2 in Greece. After that there is one day at sea and then Rome.

Love to all!! Granddaddy and Granny Lynne.
