30-Oct (Mon) Edfou / Kom Ombo / Assouan
This the 2nd day in Egypt we were getting into our vacation stride. Still up early, 6am, after a well deserved and well needed night sleep.
We headed across the town of Edfou on a horse drawn carriage to the Edfou Temple
. There were plenty of people. We found it interesting that most of the kids would shout French to us and not English.
There was plenty of activity in the town.
We then left Edfou and had a wonderful four hour cruse to Kom Omob. We sat outside. I read and relaxed. Julia and Steven did tanning by the on-board swimming pool. They did a great BBQ off the back of the boat. The senery which passed by was great.
The Kom Ombo temple sit more or less right on the Nile . It was nice to take a break from doing nothing on the boat and get some exercise.
After the sunset at 5:15pm we headed for an evening cruse to Assouan which we would explore the next day.
More photos from this day are here.
