Mike and I and many of the teachers decided to go do a Fallucca ride on the Nile. A fallucca is basically just a big sailboat. I was really excited because this was one of the things I was looking forward to! Rebecca, a teacher who has been here for two years and my 1st grade partner, took the lead on haggling a price for the Fallucca. She got us a great price of 75le with a 25le tip. So 100le total. With as many teachers as we had on the boat, Mike and I only paid 20le, which is only $3.33!!! Can you believe we sailed the Nile for $3!? It is so cheap here! We love it!
The fallucca ride was nice. Very relaxing, We went at sunset so we got a great view! It was something I would love to do again. It also has a big table, so we could do potluck fallucca rides or make it party boat style with some booze. So fun!
Here are some great photos from the night! After the fallucca, we went to an Asian Fusion restaurant right on the Nile, so there are some photos from that too. It was delicious!
