Nile River Cruise

Today I board the Nile Queen II to cruise the river from Luxor to Aswan.

I received an email from Aggressor about the liveaboard I'm on next week to dive the Red Sea. It was put into dry dock early because of some issue and my heart stopped for a second because I thought they were cancelling the trip. They have brought in another boat that used to be in Oman and the trip will go on as planned. This boat is larger than the one taken out of service and we'll dive the full itinerary as scheduled. Earlier this year in the Cocos Island trip the boat had one engine fail so the trip back took longer on only one engine. About 48 hours instead of the normal 36. They sent a second boat to follow us back to Costa Rica in case the other engine failed.
