Last night we caught the Night train back to Cairo, waving good bye to the Flats in Luxor that had been ‘home’ for the last few days. We had no problems at the train station and this time the train was only about 10 minutes late.

Alexandria is decidedly cooler than Luxor, given how hot it was in Luxor it makes the temperature here pleasant. Its actually the 22 May at the moment and I’m on the bus on the way to Siwa. I figured that I might as well take the opportunity to type up yesterdays entry. I would have done it last night but the girls discovered the solitaire game on the computer and seemed to be having such a good time.
First up this morning, well ok it wasn’t exactly early since nothing here really opens until about 9 am but the first thing we tried to do was coffee. Sounds odd for me doesn’t it…
Today we had some problems to start with that followed us for a bit. I will say this if you are heading to the Siwa Oasis do not stay at the Keylany Hotel. The prices have gone up significantly.
This morning we headed back to Siwa, changed cars and drivers then headed out on the road to Bahariya Oasis.
