Kuala lumpur - Egypt

My 20-year old daughter is so excited to revisit the countries she had gone to 17 years ago. We were there with my parents. At that time, we had also visited amman and baitulmaqdis.

Via Egypt Air, the flight was delayed from 9.30pm to 10.30pm with transit in Bangkok for 1 hour. We were served food 3 times!

Going through the immigration was a breeze. Had to fill in a form. We were so used to travelling that we were 30 mins  outside waiting for the other members of the group.

We were taken for breakfast, then to see the Giza Pyramids.
The pyramids were impressive. Going into one of them would costs about rm100. You need to stoop along the tunnel. There is nothing inside and so our tourist guide told us it is not worth going. He recommended going to another place tahrir meseum which would cost usd35 or so. At the perfume shop, we were given some kind of drinks that tasted like ... and was presented with various scents. Of course, we were invited to buy the perfume costing Rm75 (150L.E). We bought 5 and given 1 free.

Next stop was to the sphinx. We can use the same ticket bought at the Giza Pyramid to enter.

The papyrus shop was not exciting. The t-shirts costs the same as what we would get in KL.

The buffet lunch was delicious.
