The Markets and then the Nile

When we woke up this morning we found out that Phoebe and Juliet were sick. Later on we went to the markets but it was just me, Shireen, Jason and Carmel. We bought souvenirs and gifts at the markets.

When we came home and Mohsen's cousins came and we had dinner. Then Shireen, Jason, our cousins, my aunt, Mohsen's cousins and I went to the Nile at night. Phoebe and Juliet stayed with Kate and Carmel because they were sick.

We had drinks then we went home and played with "bomb" the Arabic word for fireworks. You throw it at the ground as hard as you can and it explodes! We also had firecrackers.


Here is a pic of me standing on a lion. 


Here is Jason on the bridge crossing the river Nile.

Here is the tourists' shop at the markets.


Here is the food.

    So sorry to hear that Phoebe and Juliet are sick. I hope they'll be better soon. It's no fun being sick on holidays.
    When we were children "bombs" used to be called "throw downs". They are good fun.
    Where was the lion?

      On the bridge crossing the Nile. It was very tall. Dad had to give me a boost up to it but I could almost reach it.

    I'm ALMOST thinking you should stay there. What are we going to do without these fabulous updates from the other side of the world? I do hope Phoebe & Juliet are feeling better soon.

    You made me remember I have a packet of "bombs" in my glovebox. I use to have them to scare pigeons off my balcony! I don't have pigeons any more so I probably should get rid of them.

    I already quit (you thought I was Jio!!!!) And I didn't throw them at them. I threw them on the ground to make a noise to scare them away.
