We took a day trip to Alexandria on Saturday.
I don't have alot to say about it, except that next time I go, I will NOT be touring with a group of 50+ white people, I will spend time exploring the city, and I am definitely going to hit the beach and eat fresh sea food.
We spent most of the day on a tour bus and although we did vist a couple historical sites (including the Alexandria Library, pictures not included.) I feel like we didn't get a real taste of the city.
That being said, here are some pictures of our first adventure in Alex.
Playing at the Sea.
The Roman Theatre.
The Citadel of Qaitbay.
Out one of the windows of the Citadel of Qaitbay.
p.s. On a brighter note- the best falafel and hummus and food in general I've had in Egypt= in Alexandria.
I've begun to drool just thinking about it!
OHHHHHH Falafels and Hummus!! My mouth is watering!! Alexandria is a place i wanted to go but noone else did. It would have been to much of a hastel. They used to have a lighthouse there, but it burnt down. tear.
