We're in Egypt And...

WE'RE ENGAGED!!! Yay! It was terribly romantic, we were at one of the seven ancient wonders of the world, the Pyramids, and Johnny was saying some lovely sweet things to me when our tour bus inched out of the car park so we could view the side of it which was covered by a huge banner saying "Rebecca, Will you marry me?"!! And of course when I looked back at Johnny he was down on one knee with the ring in his hand! Magical!



Unfortunately being in Egypt for two weeks (we are not back to Dublin until the 21st) has it's draw-backs in that we can't ring you all individually to tell you but we thought that at least we could pop it on our blog so that you all know!

For those who are interested (*ahem* most of the girls *ahem*), the ring is gorgeous and here is a picture of it. You can click on it to get a better picture.



Okay, have to fly now but we promise more details about the engagement and of course Egypt when we get back to Dublin! Of course we will put up more photos too! We are having a ball here!!
