We have returned from Luxor. Karnak and the Valley of the kIngs is amazing. I think it was the only time on this trip that Ed has really been overwhelmed. The size of Karnak is not to be imagained. The detail of the construction and artwork, writing is beautiful.
The Tombs of the Kings are breathaking. No photos are allowed so I have to just try and tell you about these amazing works of art later.
Egypt Air was a fun experience. So many different nationalities in Luxor. Not many from the US. Most tourists in Eqypt are from Russia, then Italy, France, Germany and on our trip there were many Chinese and Japanese on tours.
I am going to the office with Ed today to walk around for my final few hours in Eqypt. I don't know what to say.....I will never return to this place but I feel connected now, because I have seen it. Ed is ready to return home, but I think you can guess how I feel.
We have seen belly dancers and beggars, folk dancers and funny barters in the shops.
We have seen the ruins of ancient societies and the progress of today's industry. What a place.
I will see you all soon.
