The Egypt hotel

October 6th - 11:30 am
I just checked into my new room at the Egypt hotel. As I type this I'm sitting on the corner of the bed looking out of the french doors at the bay and fort Qaitbey. The hotel is just one block over from the place I stayed last night (I paid $24.00 US but that was to much for that place). I'm on the third floor and overlooking the main street, and bay. Everything is booked around here so I wasn't sure I would get in this morning but someone cancelled and I picked up an awesome room for $58.00 US. I think I can sleep well tonight. And, it's clean. Sweet! 

I'm off to get lunch and walk around Alexandria.

- Fort Qaitbey was built in 1480 and sits on the ground where the Pharos lighthouse once stood.
