Hi & good morning, well back from the 1 day Luxor trip. WOW it was amazing and worth all stress. We drove at 05o a.m. from Hurghada to Luxor 5 hours and came back at 23:00p.m. YES, we have indeed seen everything: -Kings Valley with the tombs of Ramses, Tut-en-Amun and 89 more tombs....incredible -Hatschepsut temple...the only woman, very large and awesome surrounding in the mountains. - Karnak temple...the most beautiful place. - Nil crosssing with a smal boat Gents, I have shot so many great pics and will post them (if you like to see them?) when we are back in Germany...no way to post pic from this internet coffee, sorry. The drive to Luxor is a story od itsself.....everybody who has ever been there knows what I' m talking about!!!!! We have met all the other busses in a city close to Hurghada and drove together in a convoy with 60 !!!!! busses, police, escorted and military. Around 300 police and military did the escort for around 300 km to Luxor. Every road and traffic cross was closed for us....no it gave us a bad feeling. Always controll / check points / police with loaded guns and ....mhmm will tell and show you more when we are back. Tonight we will take a again a cap (just 2 LE pounds = 0,30cents) to Hurghada to get a pretty fine sea food . Today is just a relaxing day after yesterday and tomorrow we will drive again with the Quads in the desert.....man thats sooooooo funny!!!!! And the guide always try (TRY!) to follow me with his QUAD....no way to catch me...must always wait for him. Stay in touch Wolfarossa & Anja Greetings from Egypt
Hi Trevi & Wolfgang, It's going fine, thanks - I'm flying pretty well after 17 hours of instruction. I took the day off yesterday to do some personal administration and to take my mother to a medical specialist. Unfortunately not good news coming out of that consultation - my mother will be having an emergency medical procedure tomorrow. She will be having an angiogram in the morning and this will probably be followed by an angioplasty. Fifty years of smoking have taken their toll So I have obviously cancelled my flying until there is more clarity about my mother's condition. Should all go well, I should get my "Touring Motorglider" license this weekend. If not.....then I won't. It's a stressful time to say the least. Cheers, MARK
@Trevi, thanks a lot and yes we realy needed both this vacation and time off after all the stress. @Mark, we are very sad to hear such bad news. Hopefully everything will turn good with your mother. Out thoughts and prays are with you. Be strong Mark & Debra! But must be a good feeling for your mother to have her son in the house right in this hard time. Wolfarossa & Anja in thoughts with you
Mark, I hope that the angioplasty went well. It will release her of some very uncomfortable chestpains and protects the heart. Take good care of her. Ton
Hi Gents, Thanks for your kind wishes. My mother goes in for the procedure at 05h30 CET tomorrow and I am obviously a little nervous about it. Please think of us. Wolfgang, as I am the only child (and we have no other direct family), my mother is obviously very pleased to have me here at this time...and the feeling is mutual. Cheers guys - I will be online again later today. MARK
Hi & good morning from Egypt, what a boring bonkering here....whats up Trevi? Still working hard for the august Rally? Hope everything is fine over in europe. Wolfarossa & Anja Greetings from Egypt
@Mark, our thoughts are still with you and your family and we are looking forward and hope to hear some good news about your mother. Wolfarossa & Anja
and thats why will have no more bonkering till August 04???? Come on buddy whats up with you....something wrong with you....over stressed...or do you need some help for the organisation. Let me know my dear bonker friend and its a pleasure for me (if its welcome and I m allowed) to help you when I m back in Germany. Wolfarossa & Anja Gretings from Egypt
of course not! i haven't changed my profession yet but bonkering against myself is not as refreshing, so i'll wait till you and mark come out of the bushes and back to civilization again
TreviJiemmyBonkerBrother, buddy, I' m always here and never would leave you alone!!! But sorry, just for around 1 hour a day. There is so many to do on a vaction;-). And don' t forget: Its an ALL INCLUSIVE hotel....so we MUST drink & eat the whole day as much as possible But the Egypt camel-piss-beer still sucks badly....can' t get used in this kind of stuff. Keep on buddy we will be back next week Sunday -Halbzeit- today. Wolfarossa & Anja Greetings from Egypt
Good morning my dear bonker friends, back from Egypt since yesterday morning; but what the damn f*** hell is going on here??????? Boring, sleeping, no posts....just a dead European section! Did I miss something during my vacation???? Wake up from your winter sleep;-) Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
[size=+2] Here we go again!!!!! Whats up gents? Where the hell are all the other time-wasters? Lets BONKER!!!!! [/size] Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
My dear bonker friends, we have been working damn f***** hard in the past weeks to become the NO.1 in the Regional Areas. And now its just boring, sleeping and SoCal is coming closer and closer...just a few post away from us and *g*island is also speeding. Hey, we don`t give up on it...and not default! Wake up bonkers!!!!!!!!! There is something to do! Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
wolfierosa, we are challenged! there's a immoral attack starting in the SoCal section to overtake No 1 in post counts. see http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?p=44488#post44488 and http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3498 in the UK section. SoCal is catching up and coming close. i suggest that the UK guys (which are already passed by far) and the european section unite and defend ourselves jointly in the european section (of course in the bonkers thread). so let's take the challenge and fight back!
O.K. no problem to me Lets fight & Destroy ....Here we go again like a damn f*** rocket Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
...this little ***** have shameless utilized my 2 weeks vacation!!!!! THATS NOT FAIR!!!! Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
