Pharaoh Boat Cruise

So the past three days even more people were out….so I got the chance to be the Popcorn Seller in Opening which Adrienne used to do. I love the opening number but her spot isn’t quite as thrilling as doing mom because she does a lot of standing by her cart while others are dancing and doing steps. I must say though the orange colored curly up-do wig looks smashing on me! With JJ gone, Tilley has been doing host quite often leaving me partner-less and brother-less so I have been skating with an array of all different people for my last few days.


Tonight we had our closing night party on the Pharoah Nile Boat Cruise. It was decorated in what you would expect to be cheesey Egyptian décor. They played Egyptian music and a belly dancer performed for us. She pulled some of us girls out on the dance floor with her to try belly dancing. I went up with Charlotte, Pia, and Corrie and made some sad attempts hahaha. I have no idea how they move in those ways. She really didn’t look Egyptian to me and not that non-Egyptian can’t belly dance but I just thought it would have looked better on the authentic Pharoah Boat to have a dancer that looked more the part. Turns out she is from Scotland!

The food was very tasty which made me very happy. It was a huge buffet spread which had two of my favorite things to eat here: hummus and dolmas. They also had quite a spread of dessert including ice cream which I hadn’t had in awhile so it tasted so awesome. After eating everyone went up on the top deck and sat outside to take in the view of the Nile. We only had the boat for two hours so soon enough it was over and were backing to the dock.

There was a football game going on so traffic was horrible. Some people went to the Hard Rock Café after which I regretted not doing because our ride back not so fun. It look us so long sitting in traffic and this English concession guy with the heaviest accent ever was very intoxicated and causing a scene. I was right in the midst of the craziness too sitting just one seat behind him. It was so uncomfortable. We got back safe and sound though!
