Cruising the Nile - Day 3

We also visited the Temple of Hatshepsut, Egypt’s most famous female pharaoh. Great reliefs and history. I wish I remembered more of it!



A stop at an alabaster factory, a quick picture at the Colossi of Memnon, reading and writing, dinner, a ‘culture show’ and some conversations under the stars (It’s often difficult to see more than one or two stars and the moon from my balcony in Aswan, so I was happy to be on the water away from the streetlights near my flat.) finished off a great third day.
