adventures in the country of the pharaohs

Days have passed so quickly and the 20 days I were to spend in Egypt has come to an end.Generally speaking, I expected to see and experience a lot more than I have in this visit which was to some point disappointing; all because of the political issues and the situations of Egypt right now and add to that a curfew from 7 pm to 6 am which due to most of the shops and touristic places and stores close around 5 pm. Apart from that every where and thing else was pleasant and flawless. I got to see many of my family members whom I haven't seen before except for once when I was 2 years old, it was nice and loved them all; my cousins, my aunts, and uncles and the cat. They were the most down to earth, simple and kind people I have ever met, am not saying this because they are my family but it is rather the truth.

 However, I have been to 2 different cities other than Cairo, which are Alexandria and the Northern coast of Egypt. They were both Beautiful as they were both extending by the sea, the Mediterranean sea indeed. Nevertheless the view was more beautiful in the northern coast as the water seemed three-colored and the scene during sun-set is indescribable. I haven't been able to pay the Pyramids a visit though because again due to the situation of the country, no one is allowed to go there and a few other places.

Thats all I remember right now. For the pictures I will have a separate post after I have gathered them all together. 

The great return :D

Am back in Dubai finally, after a lovely one and a half month summer vacation in both Sudan and Egypt. I loved both the countries not my first in Sudan but this time it was unique as it was my first time in Sudan with my dad and he kept me well entertained and I am sure going to go back again with him as I enjoyed very much. Nonetheless, it was my first time in Egypt, it was somewhat disappointing but to a certain level but not to deny, I enjoyed as well, met so many new but amazing people whom I miss already and had a few adventures which I will be telling y'all about soon, but for now I just wanted to let you know am back safe and sound. True it is, there is no where like home and its warmth no other place can give.

Egypt..

I have safely arrived at Cairo today's  afternoon, we were all tired from sleeping less and waking up early in the morning, we have come to the house we will be staying in,  my uncle's flat, which is really nice and I like it here, my aunt also lives in the same building just a different floor so its cool around here; but since we were tired we all went to sleep and woke up around iftar time. Had a good time catching up with the family and everything. Haven't really went out today, nevertheless I had a good walk around the area as it has many shops, they have really nice things but I didn't buy anything. Glad all the family is in good health and all well. I still don't know where we are going or what we are doing tomorrow but I hope its something nice and entertaining or to the least bit interesting.

The meet-up

When you know someone for so long, long enough that you know you have to meet up but unfortunately every time you give it a try, it blows out. Well that's exactly what has happened between me and my best friend  but at last and for once, luck was by our side and we got to meet up and that too after so much trouble but nevertheless it was worth it. Even though it was a short meet up, I shall admit I was so happy and enjoyed every second while my bestie was around. I am really looking forward to more of those meet-ups. I am not going to go in to details of what happened, but I thought its worth the share because I was dying to meet up with my bestie and I finally did and I am glad I actually did except for the fact that now I can't stop thinking about my bestie and everything which is making me day-dream.

last few days in Sudan!

I have only a few days remaining to stay in Sudan, since am travelling on Friday morning to Egypt to attend a wedding. I am stressed and exhausted because I sleep late and wake up early!  shouldn't have left the family visits for the last days but am almost done. Am also excited to go to Egypt though I am aware of what is going on in there but I hope nothing goes wrong and we enjoy it there, the thing am most excited about is seeing my family and the wedding there anyways :D

Crazy times...

well you know when cousins join together and meet again after a long time some cousin mischief is bound to happen, just like what happened today when we were cruising around today in my cousin's car around Nile street. We went around with loud music and windows open, waving at everyone we see and shouting hello whether they were simply walking or driving. It was really nice when people interacted with us and waved back though some people gave us zero reaction, moved away, frowned or gave us a surprised/ confused look, but they are not to be blamed its not everyday that you see a bunch of strangers waving at you from a car. Nevertheless, we enjoyed seeing people with a smile drawn on their face simply because of us. One more thing I've realised today is that Sudanese people are actually cheerful and cool people because 80% of the people either waved back or smiled keeping a side the people who started clapping and racing us with their cars and all the stuff such. Therefore, we decided that whenever we all are bored we will go cruising in Nile street waving at random people.

Best Friends

This one is for the best friends, in fact this one is specially dedicated to my best friend, the one whom i love so much and rely on. we cant go a day without talking to each other. this is to the one who knows how to cheer me up when am down and make me smile when am sad. i just cant stop loving this person. and no matter how much and say it would never be enough to at least give back compared to how much i take. Even though  we tease each other and make fun of one another, we never feel bad or take it seriously. This person alone knows how much i am of a drama queen. The one who is always there to motivate me. The one I know I can always find when am in need of a person to talk to, the person who is ready to help me. The person whom even if I call in the middle of the night and would happily pick up, and even when a misunderstanding or a small problem we would come and speak normally next day and dont even have to apologise because we know it doesnt matter. To simply the most perfect person I know. The only person whom is aware of all my flaws yet accepts me the way I am. The person whom I love so much and would never stop loving and I just hope and pray to god i never lose.

I could just go on and on about this person but am not sure anyone would read that much. Though no matter how much I write about this person it wont be enough so I will just leave you with this much.
