Happyland - Luxor: Population 2

Writing these backwards after an exhausting, but satisfying, two days. I'm sitting in the Happyland Hotel (can't get Janet and Quan out of my head...LOL...joke for older Aussie Rockers) trying to sort the past few days out in my head. Rhiannon's reading, and despite the kids next door yelling as they play, we're pretty darn content. Bellies full of …

Internet and Street Food

Lazy day, using the internet at Happyland and waiting expectantly for Rhiannon to discover more delights from Luxor's many, many street vendors. The chicken here is awesome, and the dip that comes with everything in Luxor is a great mix of garlic, herbs and youghurty goodness. Felafel, kofta, koshary, everything smells good, and tastes even better …

Deir el Bahari in the morning...

I decided to seperate these entries again because of the sheer amount of photos to upload. Early start at Happyland as we were again stuffed full of a diverse and tasty breakfast. There were only four of us booked for the tour, and this worked out really well. Mahmoud had arranged for a guide to stay with us the whole day, which is ordinarily not …

Valley of the Kings for lunch.....

I've adequetly described the amazement and sense of history that we both feel as we stride through both ancient and modern Egypt. However, nothing will ever prepare you for the impact of some sites. The Pyramids were awe inspiring and the Valley of the Kings is no different. I'm getting excited again just writing about it! A collection of tomb …

Medinet Habu for afternoon tea....

Would have thought that it would be difficult to top Edfu or Deir el Bahari, but Medinet Habu does it for me. Rhiannon too I think. The level of preservation, particularly of painted relief carving,is astonishing. Built by Ramesses III during the New Kingdom Period it contains several smaller chapels and is deliberately "fortified" in a style …

    Happyland - Luxor "Oasis in the Desert"

    HAppyland Hotel is a Fantastic place to stay in Luxor. Cheaper than a lot of other available accommodations, friendly and always ready to please. Your room is cleaned every day, the breakfast is huge and delicious (fruit, bread, coffee, etc...), and the staff know heaps about Luxor. Take a tour (ask for Khamal) from here to the Valley of the KIngs, Medinet Habu and Deir el Bahari and you will not be disappointed. Khamal knows more about Egyptology than I do.

    The reception staff are awesome, Hamdi the Joker and Mahmoud will make your stay fun and happy. Ibrahim the owner sits guard outside, quietly reading the paper. The facilities are great and the water is HOT! Couldn't be happier. Check out the PUB 2000 round the corner as well. :)
