In March and April I had wonderful time travelling with friends in Egypt. The main purpose was to see the total Sun eclipse, which occured on 29th March and was visible in big part of northern Africa. We observed it in As Sallum, which in fact was the only place in Egypt, where it was possible to see it. After that we spent over two weeks wandering all around this interesting country. I promise no usual boring pyramid stuff ;)
