FRIDAY's FAVE FIVE

Besides  wrapping gifts for Christmas, I haven't done anything special this week. The city was too crowded and there was a lot of traffic, so I was happy that I had done all my Christmas shopping before and not in the last minute.

Now I pack our suitcase and we are off to Amsterdam to celebrate Christmas with our son and family.

AT THE AIRPORT IN EGYPT

On our return flight from Egypt, we arrived at the Hurghada airport, which I had known as a little barn in the past and which has become a big very modern airport ! A man in uniform asked us with which travel agency we had arrived and then told us to wait outside.

Normally that wouldn't have bothered me, but it was very windy and therefore cool. So I asked the man if my friend and I could wait inside, where he was standing at the entrance hall. There was a bench on the left with two other men sitting there. He looked at me and Nicole and then said, OK, come in and sit down here. The men got up, smiled and we had a nice seat in the warmth, while the others were lined up freezing in the wind like a flock of sheep.

Then the man stood up on his toes and shouted : All old woman can come in ! Nobody came and we laughed our heads off. A more than vintage aged man with a crutch was also asked to come in and sit down, but he proudly refused.

Then the others could come in and the check in started.
