1).  The first place I would go in Egypt would be Cairo. Most of the time it is covered in smog but when its clear I would go out in an instant.  With 20 million residents I think it would have a great night life to.

2).  On the 2ND day I would go see the glorious pyramids of Giza.  I would also see the great Sphinx that stand guard to these wonders.

3).  Sometimes the outskirt of Egypt is called the Great Sand Sea.  I think they call it that because there are thousands of rolling dunes that are ever changing.

4).  After seeing the desert I would rest in the Dakhla Oasis.  Where medieval oasis dwellers used to live.

5).  I could not forget to climb Mount Sinai where so many thing of lithely biblical proportians happened.
