Our best holiday must still be our Egypt family vacation last winter.
It was freezing cold in the United Kingdom and the promise of warm weather and a little light relief from the dark nights was irresistible. But offer holidays, how soon find out, Egypt much more than a dose of winter sun.
We ended up in Cairo, a car stuffed, chaotic city pitted with hidden corners and bazaars, with heat and waste, thickness and marked by friendly locals and frustrating questions what we would like to buy. Our hotel was a bit like an oasis then: smooth and white with sparkling pool and plenty of space for tranquil customs but the madness outside feel waved.
We on our first day to see the great pyramids of Giza. You are outside of the city, majestic - a proof of design and early civilization - the man and almost completely inappropriate against the modern skyline of sloppy. From the Egyptian Museum, we held back a little dated for the incredible contained treasures. Like everyone else, we have a beeline for Tutankhamun.
The next day we headed from the young Pharaoh to see Tomb in the Valley of the Kings. This was more like it. Away from the chaos of the city, this spectacular site is incredible. Large in scale, might feel like an Explorer, hike in the middle of the high pillars and the hieroglyphics of this magical place.
But my running was a total memory of the journey and the reason why our family vacation was Egypt of one of my favorites, our Felucca journey along the Nile. A Felucca is no cruise but a traditional wooden boat, long and slender in length with a single deck with no cabins on which sit and stay and watch the world go by.
As of the day you see another side of Egypt, one less page from the busy city life and tourists seen. We saw farmers tend to the fields for the floods, high and low tide wait as they have for centuries. We saw smiling waving children in dry desert past quiet oases and pass date palms. And as the night the sky in a million stars was opened. Brighter and shinier than almost anything which I have seen before. And we drove along the great river and slept as researchers on deck. An adventure for the mothers and the children!
