Just horseing around

One of our stops today along the Nile River was the site of Edfu. There is a large ancient temple from the period of the Ptolemies in the second century B.C.

From the cruise boat to the temple we took the local carriages. The carriage parking lot looked like our shopping mall parking lots on the day after Thanksgiving.


We had a great visit, but two of our couples, riding in the same carriage, had a little spill. It resulted in two small skinned places on Joe's left elbow and a skinned place on Doris's left hand. They are all fine. Here is a photo we made about four hours later at Kom Ombo.


Tonight we have already docked at Aswan. Looking forward to some nice visits in the morning.
