I have next week off from work and I'm headed to Egypt! That's right, I'm off to the land of pyramids, tombs and temples. I'm dreading the long flight, but really looking forward to all the cool sights I'll get to see from the Sphinx at Giza to the temple of Ramses II at Abu Simbel to Tutankhamen's tomb. I only wish I had more time to spend there. One week is not nearly long enough to see all of Egypt, but that's all the time I've got. I'm not complaining. After all, it's a trip ... and another stamp in my passport. And I finally get to go to Africa where I've never been -- it'll be the fifth continent I've visited; only Australia and Antarctica to go! I hope all of you have fun spring break plans, too!
Now for the most important question of all: What book am I taking with me?
(Christie's classic seemed like the obvious choice,
especially since I'll also be cruising the Nile!)
Have a great week!
And happy reading.
P.S Even though I won't be around next week, I have two posts already scheduled, each with an Egyptian theme, just so you won't miss me too much. 😉
