Description Very clever people those ancient Egyptians..
They had two kinds of hieroglifics.. one for the inside and one for the outside of the buildings:
Inside: they chopped everything else away so they pictures and text were standing out; so they could be seen better with less light
Outside: they chopped the pictures and text out of the wall..

I know what you mean. I have no money either and would have to go during summer too. I'd want to go for a month or more though and see as much as possible.

Due to school you have to go during summer? Best time to go though isn't summer.. cause it gets really hot there that time of year !! Don't think it is that much fun to walk around in tempratures up to 40 celcius.. after some time you feel like an ..
In a month you must be able to see a great deal! We went for two weeks and saw a lot (the most touristic things).. Wow, that means you can take time to see everything at your own 'speed' ..

That's the plan, and not just touristy stuff. I don't mind the heat either, I actually like it when it's hot.

Sounds absolutely great! I know for sure that I want to visit again some day and if it is possible like you said.
I also like sun and warm weather but I was glad it was winter there, cause it really must be like living in an oven during the summer.. at least make sure you protect your head good!

Yeah, especially since I'm already thinning on top. Oh well, maybe it'll be a distinguished look for me.

If you get the right hat it might look very distinguished! What is the shame in looking like the classical tourist ? Wearing hawai printed shirts.. light colored trousers.. hat and sunglasses...

Yeah, teh hawaiian shirt would definately stick out.

You'll give the Egyptians something to look at.... Hmm on second thought that might not be such a good idea.. it may attrackt the Egyptian salesmen like bees to honey... and unless you can san no (sounds like la-eh in arabic) a hundred and ten times in a row.. you are going to plucked.. like a chicken

I would not think so either.

So you avoid the plucking!! You wouldn't want your hawaian shirt to be plucked from you..
