Arrival, first impressions of the hotel and visit to Banana Island

When I unpacked my suitcase I discovered that I had concentrated so much on the cultural aspect of my holidays that I had forgotten to pack my bathing suit and related gear... So I went to the souk and bought a swim suit and a few simple but airy dresses made from the best Egyptian Cotton baksheesh can buy. If I believed only 10% of the compliments they threw at me, I'd be convinced I was a reincarnation of both Cleopatra and Nefertiti... 
And trust me, I haven't met Ramses, neither I nor IX...
