Did a trial pack tonight, and as the wind does seem to be up and down over there I spent a while considering what kites to take.
Couldn't decide, so bugger - put the lot in. Pretty much every bit of kitesurf gear I own went into my large blue
something-or-other-PRO bag, and there's still enough room for a set of golf clubs if I felt so inclined. So with 18, 14, 12 & 9 I'm
ok for 9-35 knots, beyond that I've got a couple of good books and I'll pick up a litre of gin on the way over - sorted!
Egyptian pounds and US dollars seemed to be the main currency when I went last, tho its good to have as much low-denomination of the
local currency as possible, the locals get easily 'confused' with the exchange rates!

I went out to Magawish last week and there was no wind all week.
But it's been blowing northerly 15-25knots since monday and looks to continue.
All the guys kitesurinf on the webcam are the ones that arrived when I left.
It made me cry.
