Ancient Egypt, land of the Pharaoh’s. Born from the Nile, that enigmatic life bearing river so important to its history. Since time immemorial Egyptians have lived and died by it, it has sustained them, it is the source of their greatest achievements. Without it there would have been no Pharaoh’s, no grand temples, no Pyramids, no Egypt as we know it. Long have I wanted to visit this country.... Read Full Entry

It was one of my dreams...
To come to Egypt, but I always thought there were too many tourists and felt it might spoil the trip for me. Now, however, there are not so many tourists, and anyway, maybe I was wrong about the amounts. Giza, yes, but many tourist don't know and therefore don't go to the lesser sights. I personally liked Dahshur the best. But my vantage point at Giza was also a good one. Anyway, loving Egypt so far, people so friendly, and the history... I can't get enough of all those ancient sights. But the deserts are also mesmerizing. You should definitely come if you can.
