Egyptian Schedule – Day 1
Hi people! Yes, yes, I know. It’s not the best of times to travel to Egypt. I should have cancelled the trip, and I knew it damn well, but there’s nothing officially wrong with the destination, at least according to our government’s dedicated web page, and the trip had been organized (and paid for) since […]
Hi people! Yes, yes, I know. It’s not the best of times to travel to Egypt. I should have cancelled the trip, and I knew it damn well, but there’s nothing officially wrong with the destination, at least according to our government’s dedicated web page, and the trip had been organized (and paid for) since January. Lots of things were different back then. I wasn’t displaced from my house, for instance, and I wasn’t taking pills that are making me bleed every other day. We take our joy where we can.
It’s still October, which means that the blog and my Patreon are seeing a set of scheduled posts around the theme of Halloween: it’s primarily recommendations of books, movies, tv series, music, video games and art.
I’m also preparing for my trip, though, so I decided to publish some notes on what it is that I’m going to see these days. This will be fun if the trip gets cancelled or I disappear in the Sahara desert, won’t it?
So, I haven’t much to do during day 1 except get into the Country. I land in Cairo on a 19.01 plane and transfer straight to my hotel. According to the papers I received from my hotel, I’m staying at the Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir, overlooking the Egyptian Museum, which means I’ll be able to spy on the mummies while they party hard at night.
