a ride on the METRO and the SHOEs hunting!

Sakanat El Maadi Station

I got poison bad yesterday...what kind of poison..?? u might think im crazy but i got the shoe poisoning...i hold Shilme responsible for all the damaged!!!! :d...Thanks dear..

so the mission was to go to a Clarks shoes sale all the way to Mohandesein which is on the other side of Maadi, apparenty they were selling the shoes at 50% off so u can get a pair for 175 l.e the most. So i thot ok why not...lets have a look, so i called up my Mohandesein gure to ask her how to get on the metro..so happen she was working from home...and the poison got even stronger!
she said to get on the metro from Maadi Sakanat..pay 1 l.e and stop at Sadat station and change train to stop at El Bohoos....sound simple enuff ..i said ok..ill see u at 2.pm...and yeah she also said to take the middle cabin which was the all women cabin...Women's Cabin

what was my 1st impression...I was impressed!...it was way better then our LRT...the trains comes every 2 mins and the condition was not bad at all...i think the METRO in Milan was more smellyyy....:D...i stepped in the women cabin..and all eyes was on me..some ladies was very nice and tried to make some conversation...but all i could give was sign language felt abit dumb though. Got down in Sadat station..it was like getting down in Picallidy circus..it was busy and huge!...i even got shout at my the police for taking photos...of their civilizations...hehehe..then i ran to get on my train to El bohoos...3 stop later i was in Mohandesein..it only took me 40 mins from Maadi. Not bad aye....definitely try again.
Sadat Station

So we walked to the so called Platinum Mall...which looked more like Sungei Wang maybe worst to find the Clarks store..we walked in...and we started to try everything single shoe..hehehhe...yes...they were cheap. 45 mins later...we walked out with 4 pair of shoes..and ho w much did we pay??? well i only paid 580.le which was rm 341 for 3 pair of shoes....crazy??? yesi thot soo...but they wer good shoes and they we a good bargain!...feeling guilty now...suhana made me wear my orange wedges rite away coz it matched my bag...

I told my other frens today about little ride on the METRO...everyone was quite suprise that rode it but know they abit enlighten but the fact that the METRO is not that smelly and confusing..

i would definitely take the METRO again in the future...

Hi Ina,
Abg Anis will be attending a seminar in Sharm El Sheikh on 4th April & I'll be accompanying him. We're thinking of passing thru Cairo on our way back on 6 & 7th before we fly home on 8th evening.

Could we trouble u by crashing at your place? Do you need any supplies from home? ikan bilis, kicap or maggi mee ;-)??
