In response to "Day 15 - Cairo, Egypt virtually - Pyramids and Camels"

I think riding the camel definitely would kick my butt in real time for a couple of days so I'm very glad it's virtual.

I'll never pass on pool time. I'm literally part fish.

and I decided since Agra is very famous for its leather products, we're glad we didn't forget to check it out. A store named Taj Leather World located in the market is reasonable and offers good quality products. I wanted to buy ethnic clothing, footwear and accessories, and we were told we needed to head out to the Sadar Bazaar!
Best Tip we were given: Always bargain before making the final call.

Virtual money is so much fun...

No budget worries or scrambling to rob Peter to pay Paul.

Geez, I calculated our trip out for the month and it was 109,455.00 a piece with airfare, average cost of meals at 150.00 per day, hotels, transportation, and our different daily adventures. Prices have certainly increased.

You'll be happy I made some changes, we're spending less time in South Africa and going to Madagascar instead. I thought we needed more time near the water.

I was very happy getting the spa treatment and enjoying some incredible coffee looking out those huge windows at the mountains.

I've enjoyed it in Philadelphia at the Vietnamese restaurant my neurologist suggested. Pho 20. The food in this restaurant is so good and the prices are reasonable.

I haven't found a Vietnamese restaurant here in Vegas that I like. I am a fan of Asian dishes and try to have it at least a couple times a month.

I found this recipe online and it's quite tasty even my picky granddaughter likes it.

Eggroll in a Bowl tonight. Cheap and super easy
A bag of coleslaw mix, you can use the regular or Brocolli slaw mix is good too.
A tube of pork sausage, whatever flavor you like, except Maple.
1 Tablespoon Garlic or more, if you like Garlic.
1 teaspoon ginger
1 Tablespoon Onion powder
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
1/4 cup soy sauce, or more if you prefer.
Fry up your sausage, drain it if there's alot of grease. After draining add the Sesame oil, slaw mix, and your dry seasonings. When it Cooks down to your liking add the soy sauce. Serve it over rice or eat it without.

Enjoy Mother's Day! No prompt tomorrow!

I love to listen and read at the same time.

My neurologist when I was in Philadelphia was from Vietnam, she said their National Parks are so much nicer than the one's she has encountered in the United States. I agree with you seeing animals in their natural habitat is so much better.

The music isn't bad, I've been listening while reading and then replying in your entry.

I didn't know the waterfall was famous and I've never heard of it. I've heard of popular National Parks but not over there. That's pretty cool and I hope you both have fun. Be safe traveling.
