Shisha, anyone?

After our week lounging at the beach we returned to Cairo and met up with Donia’s cousin Dina and Dina’s friend Susan. They are a riot and we had a tonne of fun on a girls night on the town.

We had wanted to have dinner on the Nile but plans fell through so instead, we went downtown to sit on the outdoor patio of a shisha bar!!!

Shisha is a tobacco based product that comes in different flavours like cherry, lemon or melon and it supposedly has no nicotine. You smoke it out of a tall glass container that has water in the bottom. (In Canada we often call them Huka pipes.) Don’t worry I’m not going to make a habit of it or anything but it was fun to try out this traditional pastime.

Donia's dad said I looked like a natural! LOL!!
