new lens...yippie

I got my 2nd lens today..its a Nikon 70-300mm from Copot, he wants to get the 70-300mm VR so he thot he'd recycle his old lense to me...:D..thanks copot!..i dying to give it a try!...ive been reading about it...that why im still up at 1.52am!

Its not the best of it kind esp now that the VR version is out...but it works well if u dont max it to 300mm..so it seems. I will see it for myself soon...Project project!!!!

oh yeah...arom and the gang has left today....they should in dubai now waiting for their connecting flight to KL.Its sad whne u have your guest leave..the house is suddenly soo sepi esp from bubbles screaming and blabbing. Its nice having guest around but its sad when they ahve to leave...uhuhuhhu...

im looking forward to have kak shahdee and abg anis next month...:D.

Farewell Gusti....

d

I've only known her for a few months..but we have become quiet good fren...Gusti and i 1st met at my house during my pengajian class. She has a very warm personality and very frenly at 1st i thot she was single...kekeke...then i found out that she is mother of 2 and expecting her 3rd and she is still fit..:D.

since then we meet occasionally over at pengajian classes and phone calls...3 weeks back she told me that she was moving to Kuwait..all of a sudden and she will be leaving in 10 days.im like..what...did u just decide u wanna live in kuwait or what? so the story is that her husband got a job to manage 2 hotels in kuwait city...and the job needed him ASAP...Gusti & Ahmed / me /Ladees of maadi and little mariam

So last tuesday, the ladees wanted to try the metro after raved about how excellent it was...we decided to go downtown and walk thru Midan Tharir and have lunch with Gusti n hubby before she leave Thursday. All of us was super excited ..we were like little kids on teh loose...not to mention..me eing the official photographer for the 4 ladees..i managed to get some shots of downtown cairo....the building as really nice..i just wish they were looked after..

J.Groppi

One of the building that caught my attention was the J.Groppi pastry shop. Once a upon a time..it use to be one of the best chocolatier in africa and i read in abook that even the Queen Elizabeth herself would has pll to tapau ( pack some ) chocs when ever they are in egypt..so i guess if it fit for Queen it must be super and all the writers and pasha will come and sit here for their tea & and scones. Now J.Groppi is still serving customers..but the glam has gone but the history & memories still remains..even my looking at the building u get a feel that yes..once this place a hotspot! :D. I have yet to try this place.....but now that i know how to get thereby metro...it will be easy peasy....

TO Gusti and family...Bon VOyage...and i hope u will find home in Kuwait...we miss you Muahssss..
