Blood Tinged Cervical Mucus Around Ovulation

Asia we finish here in Egypt! It



Upon arriving, the The adventure begins, we are negotiating a taxi already too expensive, the taxi driver (who speaks only Arabic) drops us opposite our hotel, that is to say the other side of Nile ... We leave the taxi angry. With a time difference of seven hours in the body, our luggage on the back, we start to walk to the opposite without pay. The taxi driver after we face, we do not really know what he says, but it certainly is not nice ...

Only in the middle of nowhere, very sorry not to say "in tabarnacle" We re-cross the Nile on foot and walk about 1 km wide is the river Nile! It's 35 degrees in the sun ... Luckily, we had a map of Cairo in our guide! Then we find another taxi back to our hotel ... Welcome to Egypt ...

In Cairo, The Pensione Roma, a nice lady who speaks French finally greets us. We arrived and well located, just next to the Museum of Egypt.


HA THE EGYPTIAN ...
There are warm-blooded these Egyptian! But I guess you get used! Always negotiate everything we buy ... Walking down the street, is a test, at least for us! The vendors are all over anything, we take them for signs of dollards ... And plusils crossers are professionals! The country is like that! we must simply accept it and play the game .. not easy!

Museum of Egypt


Long live the Arab!





MEETING OF PYRAMID
Premiere Day is visiting the Museum of Egypt and mummies is a must! Second day is a private taxi for the day will take us to see the Red Pyramid, Pyramid of Saqqara and Giza Pyramid. It was at 7:00 am, all alone with our taxi late in the wilderness, no tourist buses that we had our first pyramid! I can tell you it's great to feel as if tiny front across the desert and these monuments dating from around 5000 years ... there are these crazy Egyptians)






Pyramid of Saqqara
Too many buses, too many people but still impressive and also interesting to know what is the oldest all! It is in the form of stairs, the architect of an experiment ... original!



Pyramids of Giza
It is on horseback at sunset as we found them! Gently galloping in the desert sand into huge valleys, is the other side of a sand dune which appeared ... it was magical! There we had with other horses and camels.




CAIRO TO LUXOR
With a night train, "private room" includes dinner and breakfast, we depart for Luxor! Is the great luxury! Happy Land Hotel is clean, and we do not hear too much "speakers" in Muslim prayer from the Koran written at 5 o'clock in the morning ... The roof terrace is great, it's a beautiful oasis of peace


At Luxor we've seen prices as a guide for the Valley of Kings the temple of Tuthmosis III and Hatshephsum and the Temple of Habu, BRILLIANT! And the food in the street, salads Tahini and Baba ganough and then the meat ... menoum!







Here is our hotel in Luxor!
He had the imagination c is Egyptian!






we float ... ENCORE!
From Luxor we went to Aswan in southern Egypt with a 5 star cruise on a big "love boat"! www.msbeausoleil.com ! Excused pardon me! The boat, pool, roof terrace, spacious bedroom, bathroom and carved duck with our towels on the bed! It feels good to rest a half-star hotels! We will spend two nights, with stops in the cities of Edfu and Kom Ombo to visit temples.C is fantastic to see the desert on either side and out of sight while surfing on the Nile.


CITY OF ASWAN
the morning after the boat, we went to our www.keylanyhotel.com . We stayed there 4 nights, 5 days:
Day 1: Explore the city, habits, restaurants ... and a lovely pedestrian street traders who made most of the city.
Day 2: The flies are always in our face (even if it is clean), it is hot but we'll leave the other side of the Nile with the local ferries to 20 cents for visit the tombs of the nobles at the top of the mountain, on the graves, we expect a spectacular view! A top Arafat a Nubian, with his Camel, takes us on and we brought him to the Monastery of St. Simon in the middle of the desert valley! It's the end of the day, the sun is low, the light is indescribtible is wonderful



In the ferry women are completely veiled, and men are separated


Day 3: Always flies but hey, we start with a car and driver Mohamed, visit The big hydroelectric dam of Aswan, the Temple of Philae and the Temple Kalabsha. That last two temples were moved in the year 1970 thanks to UNESCO since the end of the Nile would be flooded and become the Lake Nasser.


Lake Nasser
Delicious coffee Nubian to live!

Day 4: Resuming from local ferry but this time to go to the Elephantine Island. We walk in the Nubian villages and with Moustafa, take a mint tea on the roof of a typical coffee Nubian. With him we better understand the Islamic marriages ... a nice conversation, nice moments and a splendid view of the Nile! After tea we continue to walk and meet Arrafat. He advises us a restaurant on the other side of West Nile, the Nubian Beach. Then by boat, we will discover an oasis in the middle of nowhere! This restaurant, wedged between the desert sand and the Nile is a paradise lost! We are one of the excellent Nubian music plays and we enjoy sitting by the excellent ground Tajines Egyptian and salads! What a treat! The only way to get there is by boat, is one reason for which it is magic!

Day 5: While we write the blog! some shopping and the night train from Cairo to 18:00 The next time we speak we are at Island PâquesCiao!
After all these wonders that we saw, Egypt will never have all touching and wonderful memories!
Shoukram (thank you!)
