Day 9 at Eygpt

Early in the moring , we took a four hour bus ride to the Oasis . Because its a long journey , a tourist policeman was attached to us throughout the whole trip till we return to Cairo . My first day at the Oasis . First we visited the nicest place to take pictures at .

Then we proceed to visit the black desert .

Do not be mistaken , there is no snow in Egypt , this is the white desert . Hahas . As you have notice , we enter the place by Jeep , its thrilling to ride on . The driver sometimes race with other Jeep driver , sometimes played hide and seek . A little scary because , sometimes all you see is sand and stones and not a single Jeep is being seen . We were told that during summer , when there is no tourist . These Jeep driver organise themselves to clear up the rubbish in the desert ...

This is the yellow desert , notice that there is a mushroom shape rock , a camel shape and a chicken shape rock .

****Note from the photographer****

I often had to make my way back to the Jeep before the time limit was up because it is very cold , and whenever the sand blew , its seem like a mini slap across my face if I don't turn my back on it .

At night , we pitch a tent . It was super chilling because it was about 4 degrees . The food was nice but it had sand on it . After dinner , we had camp fire , dance and song . But it was chilling , so most of us stuck to the the camp fire . The tea was nice , but ... everything was very unhygienic .
