Thus, to find the constant motivation to blog about the trips, I've decided to force myself to write a blog post everyday on a city that I visited. :))
The first post is of course dedicated to the overview of the places that I've been to spice up my readers' interests to conscientiously log in to read the posts daily. Lol! Sounds so lame.!
Anyway, a summary of the route we took:
Day 1, 27/May : SIN-CAIRO
Day 2, 28/May : CAIRO-ALEXANDRIA; Pompey's Pillar; Qaitbay Citadel; Montazah Palace
Day 3, 29/May : Pyramids of GIZA; Papyrus Paper Factory; Perfume Palace
Day 4, 30 May : Egyptian Museum; Drive to Hurghada
Day 5, 31/May : Desert Safari Trip; Red Sea Resort @ Hurghada
Day 6, 1/June: Hurghada-Luxor; Karnak Temple; Valley of the Kings; Temple of Hatshepsut; Temple of Luxor
Day 7, 2/June: Hot Air Balloon; Sailing on Nile Cruise; Lock of Esna; Horse Carriage Ride
Day 8, 3/June: Temple of Horus (Edfu)
Day 9, 4/June: Temple of Kom Ombo (Kom Ombo)
Day 10, 5/June: Abu Simbel; Aswan City Bazaar
Day 11, 6 June: Aswan High Dam; Uncompleted Obelisk; Felucca Ride; Temple of Philae; Overnight sleeper train to Cairo
Day 12, 7June: Sakkara; Step Pyramid; Khan Al Khalili Bazaar
Day 13, 8 June: Home Sweet Home
As you can see, the itinerary wasn't all packed due to the long hours of sailing on the Nile River Cruise. Fortunately, it was arranged so because Day 6 entirely drained us out since we were under the Sun for more than 8 hours. Furthermore, certain trips like the Hot Air Balloon Ride & Abu Simbel required us to wake up at 3-4 am in the wee hours of the morning! Thus, the entire Cruise journey on the Nile was all rest and relax, where I spent most of time lying on the bed reading, or trying to repay my sleep debt. :) The same goes for my SIS. However, something positive we took home from the cruise was we both improved on our table tennis skills! ;))
