Botanical Garden

esterday we went to the botanical garden. They are working on it. It appears even it doesn't survive trash being thrown all over. It would help if trash cans were placed throughout the garden. They have a rose garden. There are roses of several colors but all seemed so small. They have rare trees... Sign in to see full entry.

Electricity off again!

Yesterday the electric was once again cut off for 3 or 4 times. One of the times A7mad was finishing up taking care of business in the bathroom. And of course it was precisely at this moment the electric was cut. We were lying on the bed while it was off. We always knew the precise moment it was... Sign in to see full entry.

Potpouri of updates

I have had the flu the past three days. The first of course is usually the worst. Every muscle and lots of bones hurt. My glands so swollen in my throat that you don't even have to touch it to see that they are. High fever the first day as well. A7mad thought someone was trying to burn him when I...

Zamalek Aquarium

We arrived at the aquarium apprehensive after we read the reviews online. We saw several grottos that were connected by pathways and staircases. I was talking to A7mad and he was squinting off to the distant ahead of us. I said "What is it?" He laughed and said "Lovers making love." As we approached... Sign in to see full entry.

Update

I am writing this as I wait for the electric to turn back on once again. It's the third time today it went off. For the past two weeks with the except of 2 days the electric has gone off anywhere from 1 to 4 times daily. Usually about 4 times. Once it comes back on it's time to hit the showers. The...

update

I quit taking my meds 2x a day. I now only take one round after I eat. The past 5 days I have not had one dizzy spell! Saturday I will go to the doctor to see if I can stop taking the meds for at least a trial period. It will be wonderful to not have to take these meds again. Sign in to see full entry.

tonight

Tonight we went to the illegal outdoor market. This is a large market that sells just about anything you want. They just don't have permits to do so. A7mad said one time they tried to arrest people and they had a huge riot on their hands. The trash swirls all around. It's set up in a bus stop. Buses... Sign in to see full entry.

The Cairo Tower

Last night we took a cab to the Andolos Garden. Admission is only 3 Egyptian Pounds which is less than 50 cents each person. It was made when the Moors had occupied Spain all those centuries ago. It covers about 2 or 3 acres of land. It's full of greenery with places to sit and have a juice or ice... Sign in to see full entry.

Nile Cruise

Down the steps Onto the dock They come in twos, threes and more Seating assigned Guests line up Self-serve buffet Occasional clatter of plates From young ones too small to carry own Waiters bring j uice or soda Crowd sated Ready for the entertainment The ship departs Singers warm up the crowd Loud...
