Egypt Oct 2010

Driving into Cairo, Egypt.


Night View if the Nile from the edge of our hotel.


Whit on the balcony of our Hotel overlooking Cairo and the Nile River

Prayer area in the Cairo Airport


Our arrival at the Luxor Airport, at which point we realized that we had no idea how to get to our cruise ship, also we didn't know the name of our cruise ship, also no one spoke english.


The Karnach in Luxor, Egypt.Sound and light show was really cool.





These do no justice to the size of these statues, they are huge, thought it was kind of cool that you could see the high rise crane in the background.




Our drive to the Valley of the Kings and Queens










Our guide Irina

Sunset from the boat on the Nile.




Killing time on the boat with my fancy new "Euro Style" swim trunks, I am awesome.

Yeah so we took camels to see the pyramids, it wasn't their first time.
