The citadel is nice but it's quick...not much to see. I'd go see the library. I didn't have a chance but would have loved to see it from the inside. Go shopping in Mahatarram (sp?) and el Manshia (sp?). There are many nice cafes and "night clubs" across from the sea. Take a tour of Abu el Abbas el Mursi mosque http://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/abbasmursimosque.htm. Go there with your SILs since part of the tour will be in the woman's section. That mosque is near el Manshia so you can go shopping afterwards. Sit in front of the sea in Montaza. It's beautiful. Moh says there's a jewelry museum in Alex but we didn't go.

Alex is beautiful and cleaner than Cairo but unfortunately there isn't as much to do there.

I agree. There's not much to do except shop, visit cafes, walk, and go to the beach. But, I always feel more free in Alex. There are more females at the outdoor cafes, and it's sooo relaxing there.

The citadel was kind of boring, but the view of the sea is nice. There are a lot of vendors outside. I wanted to see the library, too. But we never got around to it. Like you guys, we stay up until 4 or 5 am and then sleep until early afternoon. You probably will not need A/C. We had one fan, and everyone was nice and comfortable. The breeze feels great, but I took about 2 showers per day because it gives you a sticky feeling after walking around for a couple of hours. I know you will love it though , doodle.

Here are some pics of Alex and the view from the citadel.

The stores are good too... I think there was this store Mr Jean's ? i think very good clothes.. I got this GREAT skirt! ended up being $17 bucks! they even had Puma and Nike?

Ok I know I'm not supposed to rant because I got flamed on a different forum but I'm sooo frustrated. He didn't get anything yet. He could have "but they would take too much money". grrrrr. So he's supposed to go back in a few days since by then kids who are still there for school will have left and the ones that are good will open up for one week's rent instead of for a month.

I'm sorry I'm just not used to this waiting till the last minute stuff. When I book a vacation for me and the kids it's done at least a year in advance!!!
