first comment :P why in a movie?
n m d main actor in it…is it :)
Color or B&W?
What are you talking about?
watch out for the mummies.
Mark .. just came from Egypt today, was there for a conference.
Ok .. you should go to the national musium next to Sheraton Aljizeera. You will see the real mummys there.
You should also see Madinat Nasr .. Its just the city that never sleeps. I stayed at City Star Holiday Inn hotel. Its a massive chain of hotels, huge mall with very familiar restaurants ((by the way always eat from names you know)). Also you should go to Khan Al Khaleeli which you will see why you should visit when you go there.
Egypt is famous with books .. if you are interested in reading Arabic novels and all banned books you go to Nos Al Balad to Madbooly booksstore, amazing place to find all what you want.
do elaborate.
See? Told you it’s unique!
lol mark ..
How funny, we are headed to Egypt in a coupla days for vacation!
lol ..
why? care to elaborate more?
lol why?
I know exactly what you mean… as I’m sure everyone who knows the place :)
جلاوة الفيلم المصري يا باشا

Reminds me of my 1st visit to Egypt – Alexandria in 2007 felt like i was in an egyption movie.. I was so amazed by their accent and their funny sense of humor as soon as i arrived the airport… Have to say that i love their culture and their society… Had a great experiance ; )
loooool…funniest shortest post u’ve ver posted! haha
LoL .
ACTION !
O.o
Try to listen to their jokes – especially from TAXI DRIVERS. they’re really funny ppl
Mark, i recommend a dosage of a local herb called bongo. i’m certain it’ll enhance your comical movie experience :D try to come back in one piece, it’s a jungle out there! good luck champ.
i told u in ur previous post u will as if u r in a movie :P
make sure you hit al-7usain!
Feel like you’re in a movie. You mean …been to Port Said?!
I told you so too, but try to make it a comedy or you’ll hate the experience.
Mark go to ‘Mothaf al Tahreer’ you will see the real mummies held in a complete vaccum. In fact I beleve the whole Ramsisfamily co-exist in a seperate royal room, its a must see. Been there once 7 years ago, and I still see it as real till today.
I think he meant he’s watching The Mummy at the cinema in Marina Mall.
same my feeling in a 1st time..
Bumped into Omar Shariff yet? My childhood hero and desire to learn about all things Arab………………..lol
I told you before that there is nothing better than your hotel
what a really intelligent comment u left there frankom…please keep it to ur self next time cup cake
Lolllllllllllll
Mark I hope you’re at the scene where the bellydancer comes in :D

Cairo is one of the best places to visit in the world….minus the people….minus the food…minus the hygiene…..minus the service….minus the ripoff….minus the traffic…minus the pollution

Somehow I am glad not to be Mark today…

You feel like you are in a movie…..and I feel like I am not
