Spring Holiday - Alexandria

Coretan Kenangan -
Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
Hello!
Sambung cerita Egypt sat.
The second day in Egypt, we go to the where Saidina Hussien R.A head (I think so) was buried.

Ramai sangat orang, dapat sikit ja gambaq...


They are reading Al-Quran.
Then, we go shopping at the market.
Their Jubah is cheap.
Paling mahal pun around 200 Egyptian pound which is RM100, which we can still bargain.
But I don't have enough money to buy things there.
Next, we go to Egyptian Museum.
The fare is 60 Egyptian pound for adult because they need Egypt student card to have student discount.

Takleh tangkap gambaq sebenaqnya. Curi2.
We went to Alexandria by train that night...


The next day, we went to King Farouk castle.





Alexandria is a town by the seaside and it's not as hectic as Cairo.
We just ride public transport and yeah...
I enjoy the view. :)




Their library which need to be paid for 35 Egyptian pound if you are not the student of the university...



The next destination is Citadel of Qaitbay.
It's also by the seaside.
Everything in Alexandria is by the seaside I shall say. Haha.











Tuttt chakk






Konon2 feeling kulit novel. Nice idea huh? :P


And then we go to Roman Theater tapi nak tengok benda alah tu ja cost us more than 50 Egyptian pound.
So, we settle down and ride the next train to Cairo and sleep there for another night before taking the early morning flight back to Istanbul.

Comment about Egypt :
Cairo is like I don't really know how to describe it.
Maybe I don't live there so I'm not really sure about that.
The road is hectic.
We even have the hit and run experience and they even clamp our car.
Their money is way smaller than RM and GBP but the cost of living is not that low.
My favorite chocolate cost me the same as I buy in Malaysia.
Although it's a little bit cheaper than Coventry, I don't really feel it because my favorite chocolate only cost me GBP 1 for the whole pack. :D
Alexandria is less hectic than Cairo.
The road, the traffic and the people.
My friends told me that they charge international or tourist and international student way more higher than they charge their people.
Like their people just pay 1 or 2 Egyptian pound while we pay almost 60 Egyptian pound...
Not all, of course but most of them.
But still, I enjoy my time and my experience in Egypt.
:D

See you in the next entry. Bye2.
Wassalam

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Hello everybody, It's been three years since I was in my dream-like holiday to South Korea... Kena simpan duit weh, nak pergi Korea macam ni lagi. Huhuhuhu. Anyways, continuing my journey in Jeju Island, Day 3 & 4? I thought we stay there for 5 days? Maybe not. Hahaha. Anyways, since it was only a shallow memory, let's continue before it faded off. On the third day, we decided to tour around Jeju Island via car. A bit pricey cause we need a driver. Feels like princesses, siap tidoq lagi dalam kereta sewa. Lol. Anyways, we started our journey by asking our guesthouse service manager to call a car for us. The tour cost us KRW 100,000, with the car and the driver, food and entry fees excluded. So, the driver arrived, lucky me I learned how to speak a bit Korean and I know how to read, so it's easier to communicate since the driver was quite bad in English. Off we started the journey and the first place

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh!  So, today we'll be going to Nami Island by pictures. Hahahaha. So, we spend one whole day for Nami Island Tour. From our guesthouse, we walk to the train station and took the Subway to Yongsan Station. From Yongsan station we took ITX to Gapyeong, whick took us around an hour. After that, we took a shuttle bus to the wharf and took the ferry to Nami Island or know as Naminara Republic. The fare for ITX is KRW4,800 for adult and the shuttle bus cost us KRW6,000 for return ticket. To go to Nami Island, we also need a ticket and that cost us KRW8,000 with proper identification. Arrived at Gapyeong Station! While waiting for the ferry... Welcome to Naminara Republic! The map of Naminara Republic. The ferry is coming!

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. After two years... three years, huh?  I finally updated this travelog again. There are actually a lot of places which I go, but oh well, I felt so so so lazy to update. How can I even have the pride of naming this blog as travelog? Duhh... Anyways, let's continue the story of Korea travelog that won't finish if I keep procrastinating. Moving on, we woke up quite early since I bought the second earliest ticket to Busan that cost each of us KRW 55,000 for three hours.  So, we walked all the way to the train station as early as 6 a.m and went on the train to Seoul Station.  The busy bustling train station. I think ours is the 830 am? Hahaha. It was three years ago, mind you! No one there yet. We just have fun going around. We are ready to go go go!! So, Chulbal!! Let's go! Bekalan untuk masa hadapan Ripa getting ready while I sleep through the journey. Typical
