If you ever end up going there,
I suggest visiting the Valley of the Kings.
It truly is an impressive sight.
I had to choose between going there or going to Cairo and see the Pyramids.
I chose the Valley instead and it is beautifull.
Plus way more graves you can see there.

The heat thing is not that bad.
:]
...
Ok so it's pretty bad actualy, but I melt in everything slightly warmer the autumn wiether and I survived it.
Barely.
Lots and lots of water.
That's the trick.
And since its such a dry heat, the sweat vanishes before you notice it, so you wont feel all sweaty and icky.
Just very hot.

I want to go everywhere! xd
No seriously.
Life goals:
-Change the World
-Travel the World
Particular places I want to see especially would be...
-Siena, Italy(for very shallow reasons. My name is Siena. xD)
-Holland/The Netherlands
-England
-Canada
-Hawaii
-Japan
-Russia
-Germany
-Iceland
I've honestly visited very few places.
My family isn't prone to taking vacations and traveling which makes me sad.
Countries in the West aren't all bunched up like in Europe either so it's kind of a far trip to get to another country unless you're on the Northern or Southern border.
So I've been to...
-The Philippines
xD
In the US I've been to:
-Las Vegas(Okay, I live here but it's a tourist trap so I'll list it)
-Seattle
-New York
-The Grand Canyon
-Sacramento
.....
Yeah, that's about it.
It makes my THIRST FOR ADVENTURE very sad I haven't been more places.

Cool biggrin
And for y'all heading out to England one day, be happy, for everything is close together XD
You want to get yourselves to York to check out the hyuge Cathedral [built on roman foundations] and the Tudor buildings. Tis my favourite city to visit :3
Also Scarborough to check out the Scarbrough castle and experience a proper seaside town with donkeys,candyfloss,ice-cream and fish n chips biggrin
ooh! and Whitby because that's where Dracula lives (also a seaside town, but more harbor-y) and they have a cool arch made out of 2 whale bones.
so tehre ya go. *salutes*
Probably lots of better tourist destinations, but I don't go far. I'm a bit of a Yorkshire-snob, I don't like the south much -heh heh

Some will come across their money shadier ways than others

If you all are going to be hookering yourselfs out
just remember to always have theme hussy outfits going on.
For making said outfit or thinking up the next one will amuse and distract from what your doing and also be a great way too bring in the bussiness.
I personaly recomend a Viking theme.
Gives good reason to carry weopons.

Haha - never head of viking-themed prostitutes before XD
*wants to get a pimp hat that doubles as a viking helmet*
speaking of vikings, did i mention that York had the jorvik centre? Quite a few viking artifacts, plus you go round in a cart round a 'viking village' which they assure you "smells like the real thing" lol
It's crap, but in a good way XD

I've heard of it.
Sounds cheesy enough to be awesome.
xD
We have this viking festival thing once a year in the town of Hafnarfjörður,
where everyone that works there are all dressed in authentic outfits and sell handmade jewelry or animal pelts or hell
awesome weapons and such.
It's cheesy as all hell but I go every year.
I especialy love the fact that they roast a whole sheep carcass on an open fire all authentic like, then they cut it down and put it in a freaking burrito ='D
Authentic Viking Burrito.
I find it hilarious.

lol that does sound amazing.
The cheesier the better, i think. If something takes itself too seriously it usually turns out a bit naff.
