The North African countries have now reopened for business, but I think more people are being priced out with some of the vastly increases in long term rentals costs and also the casual winter sun seekers hotels being greedy.

It’s a place I have never been. Would love to soak up the history & architecture but TBH I don’t think it is a safe place to go, same for pretty much all of Africa. Even though Fuerte is not far it seems like a completely different environment IMHO

Afternoon Ron.

Egypt and in particular the Cairo museum is really a must we have been 3 times once as part of a Med Cruise, which is the first time we went to The Museum, that was 30 years ago and management still talks about the Tutankhamun Exhibition, we then did a Nile Cruise to visit The Valley of The Kings which again was excellent and then a year or two later had a couple of weeks on The Red Sea which was OK but no different to anywhere else, and we would not repeat, but The other two we were always going to but there was always somewhere else we had not been too.

My first visit to Egypt was in 1995, to embark upon a fishing expedition of all things, fishing Lake Nasser, above the Aswan Dam.
We visited some of the temples that had been moved to higher ground when the lake was forming including Abu Simbel and there are probably hundreds of buildings which are now submerged below the lake.
We also visited the temple complex at Karnak in Luxor which is utterly jaw-dropping.

Despite the destruction caused by the damming of the Nile and the displacement of the Nubian peoples, Lake Nasser is one of those places that I hanker to return to, but the security issues in Egypt are the main concern.

For anyone with nothing better to do for 18 minutes, here is a short film that I made of our first (of four) trips to the lake to fish for Nile Perch, the largest of all freshwater fish.
Apologies for the picture and sound qualities - it was filmed 20+ years ago on a domestic camcorder.

According to AENA (who run the airport) statistics, 71,837 less foreign tourists arrived at Fuerteventura airport, between January and March 2019, which is 12.44% less than the same period as last year.
German tourism shows the greatest decrease, with a drop of 43,379 passengers and a negative percentage of 21.10%. There is also a decrease of more than half of Norwegians with -61.74% (2,889 less) or 32% less Danes (7,544 less).
Austrian tourism is the only one that leaves a significant positive balance, doubling the number of visitors compared to the same period last year, with 8,842 tourists in this first quarter.
In this first quarter there have been no Icelandic and Portuguese tourists, but the number of Lithuanians arriving in Fuerteventura (1,030 in this first quarter) has increased.
National tourism
The decrease of international tourism, contrasts with an increase in national tourism, which, in this first quarter, rose by 10,459 people, rising from the main Spanish capitals with the exception of Bilbao, which drops by 3.12%. The total of national visitors is 66,364 people from January to March of this year.
Seville is the airport that has the largest increase in passengers to Fuerteventura with 5,249 passengers, with more than double that we received from that destination in the 2018 quarter. Madrid with 34,309 passengers or Barcelona with 18,563 are the cities that bring most visitors.
Flights between islands
As for the number of passengers received from other islands during this first quarter, the AENA statistics tell us that 102,510 people arrived in Fuerteventura from other island destinations. This is an increase of 2.31% in this quarter.
