Alexandria - Montazah
The Gardens of Montazah is an area that belonged to the last king of Egypt. It is a park area on a prime piece of land right on the sea. There are summer cottages and a Hilton resort on the property as well as a presidential palace. Michelle and I wandered around, avoiding the guys in the red car trying to give us a ride, managing to understand from the guards that no, we cannot go into the presidential palace, and so on. It was hot. We finally found a place to sit and read in the shade.
