Egypt [ Travel ]

Dear Diary.

I finally saved up enough to go on a trip!  It's my first time travelling to a foreign country.  My friends would call me crazy, but I'm going to Egypt.  I didn't want my first overseas experience to be like everyone elses'.  They go somewhere where the culture shock is minimal, they can try some only-moderately-different foods and it's a completely safe, nice little holiday.  I want real adventure.  So, there's no motel, only a campsite and if I'm lucky I'll get to see the inside of a honest-to-god pyramid.  I'm so excited.



Dear Diary

The scenery here is beyond amazing!  Words can't really describe it and I guess I'm not going to try.
Camp is interesting and there are some facinating people staying here.  I'm even making friends with some of them.  I went to the market today and met a bunch of locals from the village.  Tomorrow I'm going down into the tomb replica here at camp.  I know it's a bit touristy but the others say it's really realistic.  I'm taking lots of photos.  Going to turn out the light now though it might be a while before I get to sleep; it's so HOT here (well, it's the desert  - duh)


Goodnight
