A Great Birthday Present

When my parents surprised me with a completely paid-for trip to any destination that I choose, for my twenty-first birthday, I was more than ecstatic. I have always had a fascination with Egypt, ever since I was a little girl, and so it was a clear choice to begin with. My parents bought me one of the best Egypt packages, complete with the best hotels and transportation services. I was allowed to take one friend along with me, to experience this once-in-a-lifetime trip along with me. I would not want to be alone in another country, so this worked out perfectly well.
