bug
sorry to hear that you were so sick. it must have been bad to cause to to cut your trip short. i am settling in here more and more. things are looking up.

You are a good writer
If you ever want to think of a career change, you should consider something related to writing with a descriptive aspect - you had me really interested in all your blogs, not just this one. I am sad and glad for you. Ben is looking forward to seeing you - remember his birthday party is on the 28th, with a few kids coming also. Oh, and if I haven't yet mentioned it - the duty-free stores may still want to take your money, even if it is on the return journey - ahhh, perfume smells wonderful! (Only kidding - your backpack must be breaking the scales and your back!)

no place like home indead and Egypt is my home
So said that we receive people like you here in Egypt and welcome them !!!if you don't accept that maybe we face problems here in economy or politicaly and maybe this soemtimes doesn't not allowed to us to be CIVILIZED as your country is ...then stay home..yes you might not like a place or ...an attitude ..but don't ever judge us..egyptians...without staying with us enough time..and you know what.. i have just read another blog about two americans doing the tour of Egypt..they saw and hear more than what you did... but even bad stuff ..they described it from another point of view..using other expressions ...cause it depends on the person himself..how he sees things and to which limit he can accpet being different or poor or not well educated or stylish AS UR COUNTRY IS...and by the way..the poor police guy in photos not for tourist only..we had more police guys ready in street and every where more than in Paris..in fact i n France a rubbery was happened in Champs Elysee when i was there and no police guy came or even show up so i prefer to have them every where than to not see them ever......in bref.. don't travel indead better to stay home..

Ham, Egypt, Egyptian cotton
But do the different types of ham actually taste any different? And what type of food do Egyptians wear? Oh, and as you may have guessed, from your preparations, I am VERY excited about your next leg. You will have to live Egypt for me, with lots of photos. I am sure it is not what the books (novels/stories) portray, but I still am fascinated by them. And I wonder if the phrase "Egyptian cotton" actually has any link with Egypt..?

Puppy
Good to see puppy enjoying the travel also. Is it annoying carrying him around? Have you received any comments about him? A few of your photos show artwork - have you purchased any for your house?

sweat
i will be interested to hear your comments about the bicycle tour. do we grow Seville oranges in Australia?

Having fun in Singapore
Hey Hey : ) What a wonderful blog! (Try re-reading it when your sober Charlie!!! ). Sounds like you are really enjoying your experience. In my very limited travelling, Singapore was one of my favourite places, but we had fresh air and blue skies with no sign of any smog when it wasn't raining. Your photos are awesome! Can't wait for Spain.

What are your first impressins of Singapore?
So first impressions? And does the trip seem real yet? Meaning, actually being on the trip, not just planning it.

Have a fabulous time!!!
I am sure you will have a blast. Looking forward to the blogs and the photos.

enjoy
sounds like it was hard to pack for. enjoy

chocolate
Stumbled upon your photo...by chance can you tell me where I can buy that brand of chocolate and have it shipped to the states!? It is the best!
