I will be so disorientated unless I have a map. Wait a minute, there are no streets in Alex so my husband reminds me — but wait, I distinctly remember driving around in a car. Are we serious? There really are NO street maps of Alex?
Not really. I guess the Egyptians want to further engage the economy by having the tourist depend on the knowledge of travel guides and taxi drivers. Well, I have the advantage of my inlaws and sister in law to guide me, but I do want to wonder out on my own as well…
Here is the website: http://www.askmaps.com/001/ml210.php It actually includes a hand-drawn map of the tramways for the city.
Another website is http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Egypt&t=h&z=12&ll=31.22249,29.95903 which has a so-called street map (with no street names) and a facinating satellite picture.
