"Egypt is located between the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, geography across Africa and Asia, and Europe linked to, here is the birthplace of Egyptian civilization is the tourist's heart yearning for land. Egypt 3200 BC years ago, slavery appeared in a unified country; 6th century BC, Persian Empire, King of Macedonia, Greece, Alexandria and occupied Egypt; subsequent experiences in Rome, the Arab Islamic, Turkish rule era, until 1882 was British occupation, independence in 1922 ...... so, in addition to the numerous historical monuments, the Egyptian culture and customs are quite charming. My trip to Egypt is subject to a User intending to come to Egypt to attract engagement results. This User is a Chinese Muslim (and many people have asked me: not to say that the Egyptians could not marry non-Muslims? So Ortega notes), his girlfriend is an Egyptian. I am allowed to visit the Egyptians yearning for home to attend the wedding of the heart, so on September 24, boarded the plane in Hong Kong to fly to Cairo.
"Engagement ceremony took place on the 25th evening, we groom and his entourage of 14 people has become China's" family and friends group. "
"First arrived in a foreign country, right everything felt strange. To ignore Daoshi Cha (Daylight Saving Time difference 5 hours, 9 after 26 returned to normal 6 hours time difference), then their actions during the day in the afternoon back to the hotel saunas and change clothes after the start. As the wedding had been accustomed to eat and drink in China eventually led to the evening they hungry and trapped consequences.
"The bride's home is located between Cairo and Alexandria, two hours later, we are. Decorated buildings where the bride's family, relatives and friends on the balcony of our sight into the Lou Men. Suddenly come to an Egyptian family of 15 Chinese people, it is pieces of wonder in fact, we have to drive to the police station before he came to declare. Unfortunately, we have this group of "friends" simply do not know what to do, Xin Langguan also sleepwalk, with the bride's family is almost incomprehensible languages, only fools sitting in the living room, listening to the back room of the bride's companions heard from time to time issued " Huan call "(This is a very wonderful whistling sound, indescribable, a number of African tourism programs are also described).
"In the waves of" Huan call ", accompanied by the bride finally came out, dressed as Cleopatra. Audio equipment has been assembled (Egyptian home appliances are very old, this may simply asked no industry-related), but suddenly did not point, let us prepare a large number of these murders, "film" of the Chinese people rather disappointed. However, African song and dance does not require electricity, candles, getting the right when the drum stool Paiba Zhang, coupled with a wonderful voice, everyone singing and dancing. This original song and dance atmosphere, is what I often miss the days to come, so there was a second wedding experience.
"9:30, and finally have a crush on! In the audio accompaniment, we continue to go on singing and dancing. But we are really hungry and thirsty also trapped, but also embarrassed to find something to eat out on my own, and keen interest greatly reduced. 11:00, Xin Langguan finally intercede for us to exchange rings blessing ceremony, relatives and friends in advance, and then in a rich buffet. Egyptians consume a great deal of physical strength after the large Gourmet Kitchen, we are due to excessive hunger, coupled with the different food flavor, light taste basis.
"1:30, and finally back to our lovely hotel, Meimeideshui on a perception.
"A few days later, I went to Aswan, hoping to go and see the Nubian songs and dances. Ancient Nubians who ruled Egypt as a whole and created a splendid culture. Nubian people in the world, one of the most ancient peoples, who live in parts of southern Egypt and Sudan, indigenous peoples. Nubian minority in Egypt, in the construction of the Aswan Dam, the Nubian people lost their land, mainly engaged in tourism, is now operating on the Nile in Aswan sailing business zoned for the sale of boats, and earn tips mostly Nubians.
"Travel books have been introduced, the local cultural center Nubian night singing and dancing performances, I consulted hotel staff how to get to the cultural center, they told me that song and dance ensemble performances went to France, but the five-star hotel isis island hotel 23:00 There are also performances (tickets only 21 pounds (now Bank of the exchange rate: 1 U.S. dollar for 6.13 pounds). However, as the 6 hours time difference there is already 11 pm Beijing time 5:00 am, and I am not a person stays up late, but finally No fancy show), if I really like the Nubian singing and dancing, they can help me look for songs near the Nubian villages there to marry. In fact, I have not been reported much hope, how it may be a coincidence.
"Quite unexpectedly, when I toured the Abu Simbel and Philae Temple, preparing to leave the hotel, they told me that tonight was married!
"I do Haiyong Shui? Sure to leave! Then I do not regret a little small gifts come from China, and good peer support in Shanghai girl rainbow has a lighter, gave him. However, the sending something to a wedding gift? They said nothing at all. Costs? Would not have! (The last to prove not that good!)
"But, first felt a repeat. 10 pm, in the hotel kitchen of Nubian Abu took me first went to his village, because his family wanted to know me. 11:00, we went to another village to attend the wedding. Bride and groom had been pretty, the groom's hand is also holding the sheath of the long knife, quite legacy. Female relatives and children were shown to me unmatched enthusiasm, I am on their arm, who is quite interested in the pattern profile with a pity that the language barrier. They can say some very simple language, Abu not around, I could only smile. After the Abu told me that they really like me, wish I could move tomorrow to move visitors have arrived to live, you can like them in your hand like a beautiful painting motifs, but also tomorrow's wedding ceremony is another flavor, but also tomorrow's wedding only to eat (but I can not, nor want to, because I began to feel they are to me as a girlfriend of Abu). They also took me to see a new house, very beautiful, inside furniture, electrical appliances are very trendy, I found there really is a gift you can give a move could only play the fool.
"Wedding is a group of people outside the house of the dancing began, with the increase of entrants, the villagers in the village, singing and dancing while walking, until a prophet's tomb inside the bride and groom to turn laps, presided over mutter prayers. Then, again, singing and dancing while walking, including the groom picking up to dance. Is said to be dancing all night, when children are more like my camera. Unfortunately, not enough bright lights, I also did not bring a film, not fully meet their needs, that volume of the only drying out of 26. 1 o'clock, I left the village back to the hotel.
"The next morning, I told Abu farewell, he even told me it will take 20 dollars, I later gave him 50 pounds, after all, car, or give the money, and someone to accompany you one night, but also to the point of the tip.
