We arrive in Cairo ahead of our GAdventure tour and after a couple of days in Gisa we are off to take a look at the Mediterranean city of Alexandria.
very handy to everything.
Like many places young (and sometimes older) people love to have their pictures taken with you.
We mostly wander not far from the waterfront. But our meandering takes us to a local park and small fairground as well:
fun here!
The city has many examples of beautiful architecture with intricate work:
As our short stay in Alexandria turns to night, the numerous ruins and life around them have their own beauty:
One of the highlights of Alexandria is the Bibliotheca Alexandrina. It was built in 2002 as a tribute to the Library of Alexandria of ancient times.
Driving back to Cairo had its own points of interest. Our guide in Gisa had suggested we keep an eye out for the humungous El Natron Correction and Rehabilitation and we did manage a few pictures as we whizzed by on the highway. Built in 2017 in response to major criticism of human rights abuse in old institutions, the jury still seems to be out as to whether this is a bid to seriously deal with the issues or not.
Can’t help commenting on Egyptian-style driving. The purpose of lines seems debatable.
We make it back to Cairo.

Great photos, Kerry. We are surviving a Norther here in LP. Everybody, Mexicanos, are wearing parkas. In the 60s at night. Next week in the 80s. Abrazos
