sparkletog 2010...jenny sees a bit of Africa

well were back on the travel wagon. Africa this time. so far its been a fun trip but super hot. i guess ill just start in Morocco. the trip actually started in europe with family the intention being going to a cousins wedding. but because of the volcano in iceland we missed the wedding, sorry chris and aurelie! so i headed overland from ireland to morrocco with a fun stop in paris first, hey torry and amy. so in morocco i stayed about 2 week and went from tangers south stopping in a few cities along the way. its a beautiful place but lots of people trying to get you to buy things and barter for everything, a bit like india but not quite as crazy.

then i caught a flight to egypt to take a peek at the pyramids in cairo and they were great. as good as i thought. next i took a bus to aswan to see abul simbel then hopped on a felucca, little sailboat for part of the trip to luxor which is where i am now. so many temples in eqypt, im almost templed out.
