I really think I should write travel guides.
We did Alexandria, Egypt in two days for less than $50.

(if you count the exchange rate at $1 - L.E. 5... When actually $1 - L.E. 5.7)
Anyway, I had a FANTASTIC time! We hung out at ahwahs for hours, went to fish markets, ate a delicious iftar, spent a ton of time at the Sea, etc. Things seem to be cheaper in Alexandria. I'm not sure if that is because of the fact that it's off tourist season or what, but either way... A definite plus!
