I just went to see the 2nd movie in the series today. It was still good but not as good as the first. They must leave so much out since they can't make the movie too long. In fact, right now, as I have finished the 3rd book a few weeks ago, I am feeling confused about what was in the 1st, 2nd, then ...

and, yes, I have read all 3 books now . . . I rather agree about the 3rd one but I still enjoyed it.

I thought the movie was a good adaptation and was pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately, they can't put everything in the movie so some things did have to be left out. . . otherwise, we would have been there for way too long. It would have been a good candidate for a mini-series. And I know what you m...

I read the book then went to see the movie! Both are good! Not sure what the possibility of a Swedish sub-titled movie getting to Cairo but they do have movies from all over . . . so if it shows up there it would be worth going to see.

Drink mango juice all day and your whole system will be flushed in short order!!!

Don't do this right before you are starting a trip of many hours though . . . it makes for some unpleasant moments

Yes, I had a good trip! I put up some photos on my FB account but hope to get some into web albums soon so I can post on my website (easiest way to do it).

hmmmmm, i wonder how my cats fit into this scenario! Since I returned from my trip they have been fighting over the rights of sitting in my lap at night! :D:D

Believe it or not, I had this in Cairo prepared with lots of garlic in a soup! It tasted great . . . texture like a potato. So maybe I am more Egyptian than I thought, lol! Before I tried it, I was told "if you like Molokhia, then you probably will like oolass" . . . they must have been ri...

Yes but Christians are in the minority now in Egypt and yes i know it was their country before the muslims took over but also what right do we have to dictate when they should play the Koran :?: To be honest this sounds very much like we want to come live in your country because climate is better,c...
