Leaving Suez, Egypt tomorrow….about time too!.. spent so bloody much already… but i have thoroughly enjoyed my visit.. been to Cairo and saw the Pyramids and Sphinx and the Museum and saw the famous mask of Tuthankamun…got the souvenirs and presents for relatives and friends in Philippines and Thailand too. Of course.. i got my own Sisha equipment.. got 2 actually!.. yes being greedy! But on my defense, one will be for the house in Phuket and the other, will be left in the house in the Philippines.

Im looking forward to crossing the Suez Canal but not the Mediterranean Sea at this time of the year. We are expecting the med to be rough and strong winds…Maybe we can find shelter in Cyprus.. but not sure about that. If i found it cold here in Egypt….they are saying Turkey will be even more so..bbbrrrrrrrrr. I came on this trip ill- equipped for the cold. I was told it wont be cold by the time we get here. I ended up buying 3 jackets to keep me warm……Not happy about that .. coz it meant less money for shopping… and i wont be able to use them again as i live in tropical countries.. Thailand and Philippines!…but my consolation was… aside from the fact that it keeps me warm now, and hopefully in Turkey also.. i guess, i will be able to use them in December as well, when we spend Christmas in England… So i guess, i should stop bitching about having less shopping money because of the jackets…

I wont have time to check emails in Turkey.. so I will catch up with you guys when i get to the Philippines, hopefully before the 20th.Inshallah! as they say here… and Shukran habibi!!!!I miss home.. im so sea-out now!! Sorry had to rush again..did this in the internet cafe!..
