Last week I had the pleasure of visiting Egypt with one of my girlfriends K'asha. This was definitely a last minute getaway but I had the most amazing time of my life. As soon as we stepped off the plane and the Egyptians greeted us with a warm "Welcome Home", I knew this would be an unforgettable trip.
Thanks to Mrs. Annette and Mr. John, our own personal tour guide and driver for 4 days was already arranged for us prior to our arrival. We climbed some of the oldest pyramids in Egypt, visited tons of museums, rode camels through the desert, cruised the Nile river on feluccas, ate authentic Egyptian cuisine and went on a day trip to Alexandria, Egypt. The shopping is insane by the way!
Out of 700 pictures, it was hard trying to figure out which ones would make the final cut. Egypt is by far one of the most beautiful countries that I have visited.
Stay tuned for Part II...My photo shoot with the Sphinx!
