Cancun looks nice 
I liked egypt, i wasnt a fan of the poor peasents, but its very intresting to see how some people live, you think england sucks? Go look around and youll soon see how nice it is 
Cairo was filthy. polution was vomit inducing and u never feel safe. Apart from we had an awesome guide who was an ex bodybuilder so he bashed peasents out the way for us

I hated leaving the hotel I dont want to pay Łk's to go on holiday (the only 2 weeks I have off a year) to get bothered by peasants & walk about in a smelly unsafe city. Going on trips like to cairo & pyramids was really not all that good....to me it was very fast paced, too much walking about, following guides & having to be back to the bus when they tell you, found it a bit boring at times & not what a holiday is about!! Holiday to me is sit on the beach with a cocktail & watch the world go by only ever getting up to fill my glass or fetch a snack

Personally I'd risk it, you're more likely to crash on the plane going over there than you are to get bombed

i'm not interested in going either, not my thing. My girlfriends bro is going in July, meant to be 42 degrees, bet that is awful. I want it to be warm on holiday but that is too warm and uncomfrotable no doubt. Whats the point going abroad if you can't go out of the shade!

Some people obviously expect every country they visit to be just like Britain.
The ignorant amongst us should open their eyes to the REAL WORLD at some stage.

Exactly, my mum and dad are booked to go in oct/nov. My mums always wanted to go but has never done it because of all the bombs etc etc I finally talked her into it now another one goes off hopefully she will not be cancelling it after all this time

staying in sharm el sheik, dont remember name of hotel, as mrs sorted it out,
i thought about canceling it, but then thought i would never go anywhere else if i was scared of everything out there. if i like egypt will go carribian next year, then all i got to do is avoid hurricans, not bombs

why did you go to eygpt then you must have known it'd be totally different to the UK or a Spanish holiday!! plus you could have just sat ont he beach at shaam or where ever if you really wanted that type of hoilday!
