When I went to Egypt it was very, very poor. Keep a good watch on your bags, and don't ask a stranger to hold your camera and take a photo of you. You'll either get charged for it back, or they'll just run off. And if you visit the pyramids/Cairo, don't accept these 'gifts' that everyone will offer you - they'll shove some small item into your hands, insists it's a free gift, but as soon as you take it they'll demand you pay for it. If you don't, they'll get their buddies to get you. Just keep a close eye on your shit, the one year my uncle was distracted long enough by a woman for her kids to cut open the bottom of his back and steal everything in it. How he didn't notice I don't know, but they're crafty buggers. The Cairo museum is wonderful though. I liked Egypt, will probably go gain some day.
