We got off the train this morning feeling much fresher than we did when we got off in Luxor. Decided that we would have a look at some of the markets, but then when we got to them it was too early of course, so we went to a hotel in downtown and booked a room for the day to keep our bags and to have a rest if we wanted to later.
Walked to a shopping centre which was full of men's clothing stores, which was great for Maurice, but a little dull for me!.
We were by the pool at 1400 and did our very last sun tan (are we obsessed or what?!) of the holiday, went back to the hotel at around 1700 and then out for a dinner. As there wasn't much else to do we decided that wed have a few beers before getting the taxi to the airport at midnight. We started at a place that was like a Cafe that was pretty dull, but ok, then ended up in a place with what we think were Egyptian prostitutes hanging around with some men. They looked like prostitutes as they were drinking beer and had their hair uncovered (I guess I looked like one too then ?!!!). But it was all really fun, then grabbed our bags from the hotel and into a taxi to the airport.
Then we realised my mistake.
instead of looking at the flight time I had looked at the flight number, so we were around 2 hours early for the flight. Damn!. Luckily it wasn't the other way round!.
We ended up at a bar in the airport with an English guy who works on the oil rigs so he was paying for all our drinks.
As soon as we got on the plane we fell fast asleep!.
Thanks Oscar!
