Egyptian Temples

On our cruise on the Nile River,we stopped at various Egyptian Temples. After a while they start looking and sounding the same. It was interesting to note how big and intricate their temples are. So much info here, but I have to admit I've forgotten quite a bit of what was said. 

The hieroglyphics are extensive and tell quite a story.

I find it cool that these carvings have lasted so long and interesting that someone took the time to "jot" all this info into rock.

Notice how deep into the rock this image is. Wow, labor intensive I would say.

Here's the picture I took of Kelly, trying to be one of the warriors you see there on the wall. The ones with no right arm are the wicked warriors I do believe.

This is the view Mike had of Kelly doing her thing for me. Our guide is telling us stories and we are messing around. (Maybe that is why I can't remember all the stories, I was distracted.)

OK, I want to play too! My effort at being armless!

And this is Mike's view of the same picture. Our poor guide, we were perhaps a bit distracting, but we had fun.

Ok, Ok, I guess it's time to get back in line and listen.

Kelly doing her thing again, it was fun. I wonder what he thought?

Some interesting characters, selling their wares. Those are cigarettes. I wonder how old this guy is?

See, interesting guys all over the place.

We'll end off with the "happy guy" for the Egyptian Temples.

Just in case you are wondering, I'm up to 17 November 2010, day 12 of the tour. I may get this done before Nov 2011, thanks to all my followers, I appreciate your comments and for any "stalkers" who choose not to comment, I appreciate your interest too. I'm just lucky enough to be able to see and experience these things. It's nice to have a way to share it.
