Cairo's Crazy Traffic

What do you think this is? It's a taxi! Most cars in Cairo looked 20 to 30 years old, almost broken.

No traffic lights. No lanes. No rules....

The Basics: Giza Pyramids & Spinx

Day 2: It was such a sand storm...! Plus, this day's tour guide was terrible...she was 40 minutes late, could not communicate in English well, and the tour did not go inside the pyramids. So, I organized a private tour the next day (see below.)

Day 3: It was beautiful, and the driver/guide this day was excellent.

He took me to this place of panorama view.

Pyramid Sound and Light Show

Turkish Airlines Business Class

It was empty. I could even occupy the two seats!

My most favorite part...a large CD collection, including classical music.

Somewhere between Tokyo and Istanbul...

Happy New Year 2009

I never realized I was so lazy last year...don't know how I didn't update the blog for so long. Anyhow, I've just come back from a grand adventure in Egypt and Turkey. Here is a champaign I'd like to toast with you!
