Re: wedding gift
omg red ruby id love to see those earrings! they sound gorgeous!!
silsila, i went to cairo for a couple of days to go site seeing, it wasnt good. i guess its a good thing to go to egypt once in ur life just to see the pyramids and stuff but thats really all there is there. just watch out, they will know ur a tourist and will try to take out as much money from u as possible. just remember to bargain with everything just like in paksitan, bargain to buy things, bargain for a cab ride, i remember buying papyrus with my and my sisters name written in heiroglyphics on it and we reduced the prices by over 50%, now looking back who knows if its even our names written on it! just remember to bargain everywhere, they will not let u walk out their store empty handed.
unfortunately, i didnt get anything on the wedding night but we went to istanbul for a week on our honeymoon and went all out, went to beautiful, trendy restaurants, bought everything i liked and once we got back to ny he got me the new 3G iphone! i think i would have asked for diamond studs cuz ive wanted them for a few yrs, but his dad knew i wanted them and got them for me on the wedding. :)
btw, we are thinking of going to peru in february for a week. if anyone has any suggestions of where to go there, or not go there at all. thanks.
