Don't use hotel taxis, they are 3-4 times the cost of ones on the street!

yeah I saw the IC pyramids park but it sounds like its way out in Giza someplace!..Ive only ever spent on day and night in CAI so I think I better stay centrel. IC semiramis sounds OK. Was also looking at Conrad?

In KWI Im planning to stay at 'HI Downtown' looks modern, central and decent. Ive stayed at CP KWI but its far out and a bit run down. Service is exquisite however. Also the hotel is so tightly guarded due to it being the hotel the US soldiers take R&R in from Iraq...so lots of US accents to be heard there..all talking about baseball, baseball or baseball

Cheers. CJ
