Afternoon and night in Luxor
... The "bedrolls" remind me of cotton bales.)
We get off the ship when called and need to identify our luggage stating what is going with us to Luxor and what goes to Cairo. All of our luggage is there so we are part of the way there. (I take a picture of our suitcase in case I need to describe it later on.) We get on the bus and learn we are the smallest group which is good. We head off for a 2-3 hour ride ...
Luxor tour from Sadaga port
Safaga,is a working port on the coast of the Red Sea, brings you close to

The men then located their bundles and separated them into different piles spread out some 80 yards on the pier. ...
Desert Jeep Safari, Bedouins & a Birthday Party!
... knees so you don't topple over his head -- a little scary!!
Back on the ship after showering and getting cleaned up we went to a Birthday Party for our friend Mili who is a member of our Trivia Team. We play trivia most afternoons at 4:30 for "points" that can be traded in at the end of the cruise for "stuff". We have a good team and do win occasionally - I am learning lots of useless information playing and having a good ...
