Gamed mawdoo3 el sa7el dah, this is my first time, i went this time with a very nice company and it was a lot of fun.

looking forward to my next Egyptian adventure

excited, a few more hours of mobile internet before total technology abandonment for a few days

till a week ago i didn’t know that a place like this exists in Egypt and this far in the south about a few kilometers after el Quoseer we found the place where me and a couple of my friends were going to spend the weekend we had a really good offer and we thought we should take it…

anyway the place is amazing it’s called Dreams Beach… well the beach isn’t so great there’s a lot of corals on the beach and u have to walk with a diving shoe for a while till u can snorkle but the sun the clean air and the Enormous pool were really great

the staff was super professional always smiling always asking you if u need anything just look at one of them and he’ll come running towards you even before asking for anything , i forgot my pool towel card the second day and the guy gave me one anyway till my room mate came back from diving and gave me my card back.

Video Games are a relatively a new type of entertainment only as old as computers all my life i’ve owned two game consoles other than that i have been playing PC Games

PC games are a whole other issues which really deserver another po… no a whole series of posts or even a blog..

geek as i might be, i only were going for the different games as most of the Playstation games which was the most dominant game station ever (which is my opinion) those games were available for PC with even more options and easier to get - at least for me- and gaming on such consoles didn’t bring much difference form gaming on a PC

anywayzzz…

my first console looked exactly like this one, we had this very same box, it’s one of the earlier versions of Atari 2600 might be the first version - note the wooden look - my father bought this one for me and my brother and i remember playing hours and hours its great games

it was years before its games became available in Egyptian market, well Atari 2600 became a classic game console and a collectors item.

there was this one Game which i really really loved it was called defender it has this very basic Graphics

but i remember having a lot of fun just because of the amazing game play

at this early time it was gradually being more difficult it had levels, it night variation of levels it had multiple actions like saving victims to save instead of just mindless shooting. man i still love that game

as playstation came out , i was playing most of its games or similar ones on PC i didn’t feel like i was missing out especially with the PC advanced intelligent control the “Mouse” it was easier to play strategy games and
First person with multiple floors, … anyway it still was the same for PS2, xbox ,xbox360 till the idea of a wii was there i remember the first time i saw that video earlier 2006

i was amazed by the concept and the demo that the wii executives were making of the tennis game

well i think the wii has a long way to go with its innovative controls and luring in the big names in gaming like ea and activision

Going to Marsa Alam in a plan to maximize potential of weekends, i like the adventure including the part in the car with titi

well i think the reason where u like a specific sitcom or a movie is that you can relate to a character in it, i like “that 70s show” and friends cuz u can relate to their characters where my friends are the friends around me. both series have good memories with friends of mine watching it on our computers in cairo

friends i still have the complete collection and i watch that 70s show on mbc i have watched friends over 13 times and i am working on my 14th (geek i know) but hey i enjoy it more every time and i know that “that 70s show” only second season is being played on mbc but i still enjoy it even when i can lips whole episodes

last weekend after work it was about 11:30 pm we decided to go out on one of those outings that you can only go to in cairo, i wanted to go to a new place.

a friend proposed a place in “El Mohandeseen” which is a far place from where we’re staying in cairo “Maadi”. the trip alone took about 2 hours we enjoyed nilefm on the radio, house music was on but it was bareable, i like the station it’s nice and they occasionally play rock music. i’ll miss that i have to be on a laptop to listen to it outside cairo…

well weekend traffic is impossible in cairo 2 hours of sun packed trip to el mohandeseen was amazing and has reminded me how much i hated commuting in cairo today as i am blogging from hurghada it’s really nice going from one place to the other in 10-15 mins tops. but usually where u need to go is only 5 mins away.

 
we went to a place called “El amoudy” which has the weirdest menu for arabian food we orderd stuff which we didn’t really know how to pronounce it tasted “ok” but hey new experience

walking by the sea in alexandria is always a fun thing to do, today is sham el nessim woke up late and had a shower, then went out for a walk there’s a spot that i always like to sit there for hours

but as today is sham el nessim there’s a hell lot of people that have thought same as i did and i went there to find this, being there i decided to go check up on starbucks they’re opening in San Stefano mall facing the sea

they didn’t open yet that was weird for me cuz i expected that they’d be open by Easter anyway there was a lot of activity there so i went and asked the guy if they had wireless connection available there and he said yes sure we’ll be open tomorrow morning @ 6am i really did like his spirit the guy was very excited about opening it looked like a bee hive everyone is doing something over there.

i am now in cilantro waiting for michael WALLA YA MICHAEL

it’s been 3 days in Alex i didn’t go out of my room just sitting here in my bed doing nothing useful in any means, i watched movies surfed the internet listened to music played games

i think i’ll start my activities today doing some errands. that’s ok i still have a couple of more days in my short vacation
