  • Fantastic sighseeing day!

    21. mai 2022, Egypt ⋅ ⛅ 86 °F

    Went to the Citadel, Alabaster Mosque, lunch (a typical Egyptian meal of bread, plate of carrots/peas/zucchini/French fries (I know 🧐) the warm cream chicken soup, more bread, then a sizzling grill of beef, lamb, chicken and rice pudding w/shaved coconut). Then the guided tour of Egyptian Museum which exceeded my expectations. A wonderful day. We are hot, sweaty. Resting before our welcome reception.Les mer

    22. mai 2022, Egypt ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

    Today was amazing. My heart is full. Pyramids were breathtaking! Camel ride was spectacular (Charlie my camel was a good boy) and I didn't fall off. Sphinx was crowded but still a sight to behold. I was overcome with joy.Les mer

  • Cairo >>>Luxor

    23. mai 2022, Egypt ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F

    Today was another foodfest breakfast. Then a short flight to Luxor where we got on our cruise ship (let's just say its not Carnival!). Only five decks. Our suite is spacious and lovely. Had lunch (another foodfest and alcohol) Then a chance to unpack then sip'n sail (more alcohol). Now on way to Luxor Temple at sunset. Then back for dinner. And if that isn't enough there's another snack put out.
    Got a birthday gift (early) from Dana and our travel cruise manager. Gift certificate to spend on ship. Can't wait to check out gift shop!!!

  • Thursday. Aswan

    26. mai 2022, Egypt ⋅ ☀️ 95 °F

    All but six of us went to Abu Simbel. We stayed behind to walk around. Not the brightest idea as it is about 100 but we shopped in local market and saw some sights.

    Later we go on a felucca ride then afternoon tea at sunset.

    Breakfast picture shows me sitting between two federal agents. He was a customs border patrol agent and she was an IRS agent.

    Took a felucca ride around Elephantine Island. Then afternoon tea at the Palace (I forget the name) but gorgeous. Tea nothing like ours though. View was spectacular.
