点评:Unfortunately having arrived on the island today to explore the Botanical Gardens it was made clear to me that it was a national holiday. Not surprisingly there were a great number of people visiting and therefore it was really not possible to enjoy the experience.There were the usual array of uncontrolled hawkers and pedlars in and around the entrance, both inside and out trying to earn a living. For anyone visiting Egypt and particularly those here for the first time it will be quite intimidating as the authorities here have little structure or presence. Bringing my binoculars with me was a waste of time as any wildlife had disappeared long before the first clash of symbols and banging of drums ! I am sure that on another day it would be a much nicer place to visit but I have run out of time down here.But whatever happens the authorities, for what they are worth,need to get a grip on the litter situation which is clearly getting out of hand, and reduce the number of unlicensed vendors who quite frankly are a pain in the backside ! ..
