Greetings from luxor and the valley of the kings. We've had the most relaxing couple of days sailing down the nile by fellucca, washing and swimming in the nile and eating good hearty fishermans diners. Today has also been a long day starting at 3am in a field on the west bank of the nile, we caught a hot air balloon to take us up over the nile with some magnificent views, and back into another field, nearly a ditch. We got our certificates, free t-shirts (and a round of applause?) We then drove to the valley of the kings to visit 3 out of the sixty four underground tombs, varying in depth and size and full of carvings and paintings. We also had time to see the temple of hapshepsut and the tomb of tutankhamun. Tonight, were off to crazy cairo again by overnight train, then on to the northern mediterainean city of alexandria. We are both well and starting to endure the heat a little better, hope your all doing good. Lotsa love Hannah and Stuart
