What a day....Part 1

Hey Travel Lover

What comes to your mind when you hear the travel destination Egypt? I think the pyramids, River Nile, Red Sea, to mention but a few. But the first will definitely be the pyramids.

Little wonder when bestie and I decided to visit in 2023, the pyramids were the first attraction we saw. Being the planner that I am, we had a packed day in Cairo. I doubt one post can showcase all we achieved in a day.

We started the day with an amazing power breakfast from the Haven cafe located in our hotel. While the sandwiches were the real show stopper, the mango & peach smoothie and the orange juice were to die for. The taste, so fresh and juicy it definitely had something to do with the Nile😉😉 (Sadly food was long gone before I remembered pictures🤭😪)

Our tour guide took us to a shop to buy "authentic cotton" scarfs as the sun is rather unforgiving at the Pyramids. Tummy full, scarfs purchased, we head to the pyramids of Giza. 

The magnificence of the three pyramids….un-be-liev-able!!! There was this proud moment of finally seeing the Pyramids upclose and listening to the history of it, how the Pyramids was built as tombs for three Pharaohs - Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure over 4,000 years ago.

We took loads of pictures. In one picture, I felt like a cyclops look-alike🤭🤣. Then, we had a photo shoot session at this picturesque part close to the Pyramids. We had two options, either to go by camel ride or a horse driven cart, we chose the latter, even that wasn't as safe as we thought. We, however, arrived in one piece🤣🥴. We saw a couple doing their pre marital photo shoot there too, I just love love😍😍

Our tour guide Michael was a wealth of information, I didn't expect any less anyway. He was reeling facts and figures, and I discovered that bestie was also quite vast with Egyptian history….interesting 😁😁😁

There was so much to see and do, I'll stop here and continue next week.

So, Travel Lover, has Egypt made it to your bucket list? Are you intrigued by the magnificence of the Pyramids? Would you consider visiting? Let us see your responses in the comments section.

Till Next Week

Live, Love, Laugh
