simply Alex.


You may see them on the train from Cairo to Alexandria, thinking they are in a tea party. Dinning at the Greek Club and promising that they would come to Alexandria more often. Having coffee at Délice and imagining another era. In all those moments and whenever life throws one of them among very alien -a little too practical- souls, each of the ladies would be thanking God for sending the others her way.
They call themselves, Ladies of the Order of the Bubble.
It is at times like this that I am certain that people make the place.

For some Alexandria breeze read Out of Egypt: a memoir

I wish those moments would last for a life time, for without them ladies life has no meaning and I have no faith nor power to move on...Angie "the tiniest bubble :)"
