Africa & Middle East - June 2006

I am thinking about going on a trip with a group to Israel and then down to the Jordan and Egypt. I know that Israel is generally safe, a relative of mine has been there many, many times and has come back alive and well each time. But what about Jordan and Egypt, especially? Has anyone traveled there before? Thanks.

I thought I'd ask people who'd actually been there. My answers in another category have mostly been "write a letter" and "arm the citizenry."

I know graduation is a big thing, but I wanna know if you did something you'll never forget or if something happened that you won't forget. My father was the principal at our High School and me and my friends were always in trouble. We played lots of pranks on teachers and students. But my fondest memory is sitting in class and listening to my teacher announce that Nelson Mandela was gonna be released from prison.
Just wanna ask something positive about my country.

I'll be travelling to Turkey. Other than Istanbul, I plan to go down to the coast of Turkey near Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye, maybe even
Antalya. Some Greek islands are also nearby, such as Kos, Rhodes.
I have been to Greek islands before but not to Kos or Rhodes.
Rhodes is a big island, my feeling is that I should not include it as this
7-day tour of the Turkish coast.

My question is: what's the highlight of this part of Turkey/Greece?
With emphasis on Turkey. I prefer scenic landscape, beautiful
coves for swimming, boating, photography. Not so much package
holiday sort of place. How can I plan my 7-day holiday?

Thanks

This is complicated. I was held captive by criminal terrorists while I was in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. The hotel and a world bank was complicit in the plot. My travelers' checks were physically wrestled from me ($8000.00. I was taken to a bank and was forced to sign the checks. My cash, watch, cameras, a recorder. were stolen. I was poisoned. I was kept to a hotel room for 6 days. They wished for me to turn over my passport, and sign some strange documents. I refused, even after they threatened to lock me in a wooden box. The American Embassy rescued me and assisted me in many ways.

Before leaving the US, I went to my cell phone company. I was given assurance my cell phone would operate in Burkina Faso. As soon as I arrived in France I noticed I had "no network." Due to the fact I had no means to communicate with the outside world, I became a victim. The hotel had disconnected my telephone, refused to call the police, or allow me to contact the Embassy. There is much more!

I am still working in a foreign country and considering it to stay here, not for any specific reason. BUT: i miss everything about SA. Is the struggle, crime, poverty worth it? Do you think things will better in the future? i have always believed it...but I also know I am a dreamer who believes in fantacies
