My Egyptian Sojourn |Travel Diaries

Every time I heard the song "Walk like an Egyptian" in the mid-80, I used to dance like crazy. Yes, I was a baby then and this is what my mom always says…

Egypt was right on top on my list of Must-Visit Places, so when the opportunity came knocking I grabbed it with both hands. I was then working with a pharma company shuttling between Mumbai and London and had to attend a marketing program in Egypt, yes can you believe it a marketing program in Egypt.

I went, attended and then extended my stay there to tick the travel on my bucket list. Hubby dearest joined me, the very newly married couple on the second honeymoon :) The next few days were simply amazing. I wore a simple cream coloured Presha dress and accessorised it with a large black-brown scarf.

The Great Sphinx, the ancient monument that competes with the Pyramids of Giza.

At the entrance of the Pyramid of Menkaura with school students.

Hubby dearest at the foot of the Pyramid of Khufu that stands at 888 feet.

Not without a camel ride?

Visited a perfume factory where they make glass perfume bottles by treating glass tubes with heat.

Went berserk shopping essence and super cute glass bottles at the perfume factory.

Stay tuned for more travel tales.

Until then, keep visiting.

Black Forest Calling |Travel Diaries

Since travelling is one of my passions apart from writing and reading, I am clubbing two of the three to bring to you a series of picture blog posts.

Driving through the Black Forest in Germany, all I could really do was marvel at the wooded mountain range. To the naked eye, it sure does change colours over the course of the day... from a beautiful dark green to an inviting black.

Did you like what you saw? Let me know and I'll take you with me on visual delights... and more the place next time! Leave your comments and let me know your thoughts.

Oh and don't forget to bring back a memorable Cuckoo Clock from one of the renowned makers.
I purchased mine from The Cuckoo Palace in the Black Forest. The products offered there are 100% original handmade clocks with VDS Certificate of Originality.

Until then, keep visiting.
