Feeling the Love

February 17th 2016

The buffet was elaborate with multicultural influences, more fruit and pastries than imaginable as well as a honeycomb station.

Well, through good timing and lots of luck, I am about to hit the skies again. It has been far too long since my last journey.

A Perfect Day!
Unforgettable adventure sandwiched between incredible meals--well-done! Good for you for climbing inside the pyramid--a great memory and even the bad parts made for a fine story. Loved that you guys had your photos taken on horses and camels at the pyramids.

As usual, your foodie photos and descriptions are salivating! What might the third day hold?
