Our Madrid/Egypt Trip

We have decided (two months ago) to go to Egypt.  Our flight takes us to Madrid for an 8 hr layover.  We decided to make a trip in Madrid instead of just hang out at the airport.  We are staying in Madrid from 12/20th to 12/23rd.  Our Egypt trip will take us to Cairo, Siwa, Baharia, Luxor, Aswa, Abu Simbel, and finally to Sharm el-Sheikh.  We will try to do all that from 12/24th to Jan 4th.  It will be quit intense and exhausting.  We are going with a large group of friends.

 

Today’s news about tourists kidnapped in Egypt is certainly worrisome.  Abu Simbel is close by the Sudan boarder.  Siwa/Baharia is in the middle of Egypt’s western desert.
