Luxor

Sunshine, temples and ancient Egyptian Gods – what more could I want? Your have been warned – this post is picture heavy.

Well, watching some of the people around me – it is obvious that they don’t appreciate the finer points of breakfast. There are olives, tomatoes, cucumbers, fresh yogurt, hard boiled eggs. With the choice of either coffee or tea, I could not be happier. For those who really want the Western traditional – there are also corn flakes, omelettes, hash browns and various assorted breads/toast/pastries.

Boarding a bus, there are 17 in our tour group going to Amun Temple. A few pictures. (see the rest under travel – Egypt)
