Hey guys

-17 °C
View Where in the world is Ashley Churchill on AshleyC's travel map.

I'm still in Greece. The weather here is beautiful. But its kind of odd. Most of the locals are wearing winter jackets and I'm in a tanktop. I saw the Parthanon yesterday. Its quite a sight to see. When you're at the top of the Acropolis, you can see out to the ocean. I'm kind of glad that my mother didn't end coming with me to Greece. It is VERY easy to get lost here. A compass is a must. Earlier I said that the middle east is not the place to go to when you are trying to quit smoking. Well, Greece should be avoided if you are a prude or a recovering sex addict. The ancient Greeks were quite inventive when it comes to sexual practices. I bought a calender and a pack of playing cards with various positions that they used. And they are EVERYWHERE.

Before that, I was in Egypt. Not a fan of Cairo, I must say. I've never seen poverty as bad as I have recently seen in Cairo. I spent my second day sitting by the pool at my hotel. Here I am infront of the Sphinx. I'm not that photogenic. IMGP0551.JPG

Cairo is encredibly bad when it comes to driving. Worse than Montreal and New York City combined. On my way to the airport to leave Cairo, the driver GOT OUT OF THE CAR in the middle of traffic to talk to someone. He just parked it in traffic with cars coming from all angles. I didn't tip him.

Bye!
