It was my first time abroad in October 2006, Sharm el Sheikh being my first place to visit. Ever since i was a little girl, the Pyramids and the Temples have always amazed me...so Eygpt was definately on the agenda. I can tell you that i wasn't disapointed!
I arrived to Sharm El Sheikh on the 2nd of October, and was staying until the 16th. Boy did it go fast...I DID NOT want to leave! Of course, i visited Cairo and Luxor, where i got to see the most breathtaking sites. I also had the chance to experience; Fantazia and quad biking in the desert. Everything i saw or did was the best experiences of my life and would definately recommend it to anyone!
Where do i start about my memories of Sharm? There is SO many! I have to admit that Sharm El Sheikh was better than i imagined...I went with an open mind and came back with fantastic views! Afterall, my grandad was stationed in Egypt with the Army and you can imagine what he thought...Hehe. Times have changed and the Army didn't get the pleasure to experience what i did.
I won't ramble on as there will be adding information and my views of the experiences that i have tried whilst in Egypt. I will say that if your ever thinking of going, then DO IT! You will not regret it!
Oh and i will be back in Sharm from the 23rd of September 2007 for 2 weeks (21st birthday present) Lucky me!
Love and Best Wishes,

Happy Birthday!! You have some really GREAT stories here. I can't believe I've never visited your VT pages before.
Nice description of the bus trip to Cairo. Thinking about taking it when I go in October.
Nice work mate!
Thanx for such an extensive set of tips. I very much appreciate your picturesque style of writing, full of your personal opinions and descriptions of your own experciences. I'm sure your tips will be very helpful during my journey to Sharm in May2008 :))

Great overview. I didn't think of Sharm El Sheikh as a home base for the pyramids, but it's a great idea. Thanks!
