Clare's Big Trip
Hey! I'm now in the land of the Pharoahs!! A land of incredible history. Hard to comprehend. It is really the cradle of civilisation.
I started the tour in the huge city of Cairo (~22mill.) with 2 other guys & the guide. We went straight out to the Great Pyramids of Giza - on the outskirts of the city, rising above all the apartment blocks. Got history info overload at the Egypt Museum.
Today we went to one of the greatest old temples in the south of Egypt - Abu Simbel - with huge statues. We had great dinner with a Nubian family and tomorrow we'll be boarding the felucca for 3 days & sleeping on it under the stars. It'll be a great way to relax! Its quite suny here which is nice.
Really amazing country!
