We will hook up with our "private group" (of about 130+ people) tomorrow
AM on the ship and disembark as a group to load up on 3 buses for the
3hr+ drive to Cairo from Port Said.
We will be in Bus #2 ,,, no doubt the best bus in the group!
Our excursion will have us visiting the Step Pyramid, the pyramids of
Giza including the "Great Pyramid" and the Sphinx ... and ... we plan to
"ride a camel" ... that will no doubt be an experience in itself.
Tomorrow night we are supposed to see a "Light show" over the Nile and
have dinner "on the Nile" (actually on the banks of the Nile I believe
the actual boat cruise we had planned got superseded by the Egyptian
government for some sort of special occasion.) We should get to see
some belly dancers and "whirling dirvishes" as entertainment during
dinner. We will be staying in the Cairo Hilton overnight and then back
on the buses to journey to Alexandria ... I believe there is to be some
museum time and shopping before we re-board the Grand Princess and start
our two days of sea travel back to the port outside Rome.
So don't look for posts from me for a couple of days.
Also I managed to get only 1 picture of the Mykonos stop posted to the
gallery ... the internet link on the ship has been awful today.
