Well the Cairo bus left Nakari about 6pm (7 in reality) We spent the morning snorkeling round the nakari house reef. I am actually able to see the coral and the fish without panicking too much now so its very enjoyable- I may even try to go snorkeling at home.
We have made friend with every body at camp including a loverly Egyptian couple who are honeymooning at nakai - we travel with them back to Cairo. Sad goodbyes at nakri to mandy,penny,brian and ali - the other geusts and mido wave us big goodbyes. The couple get us on the non tourist bus - we travel at staff price - he is the accountant for nakri , his job is" cost control" this is an ongoing joke with us and his wife who has a great sense of humor . I danced with her a little at camp , she is a siadi girl and says my baladi is very good so we have become good friends and they teach us a little Arabic everyday !
my favorite saying for the moment is "fil mish mish"- when the apricot blooms - its like saying when pigs fly. And it makes Egyptians laugh when you are haggling with them. Its a very long journery by bus - we arrive in Cairo at 6 am in the morning , but on the way we are feed and bought tea by our lovery traveling companions - they really know how to look after you.
I have to get them a present - they wont take any money but maybe we will go to there house for tea in Cairo
