Egypt, Day Two
(click here to read my journal entry for today)
on the ferry boat to the island of Philae
part of the temple to Isis on the island of Philae, near Aswan the main entrance to the temple a close-up of some of the relief carvings on the entrance walls
our delicious buffet in the dining hall of the ship
the interior rooms in the temple the unfinished obelisk...really not much but a pile of rocks, but I thought I'd include a picture to prove it a blurry (sorry) picture of our cruise ship on the Nile
one of the captains, leading us in an Egyptian chant...."oh, ah-ler-ay"!
Jim, Kelly, Parkey, Alan and Kristen
one of the feluccas we sailed around on Celci, Amy, Josh and me on the sailboat
a random kid who pulled up and sang "she'll be comin' round the mountain" in French and English...some of the girls were suckers enough to give him a tip our first Nile sunset
the other boat, getting pretty crazy to the drumbeat our boat captain (a happy looking fellow, isn't he?)
two of the members of the crew teaching us a new dance
the view from the top deck

Daniel's and my love nest on the cruise ship
