Today was the most leisurely of all the days so far. We were up early, as is the norm on this trip, to see Horus' temple. The story of Isis, Horus and Osiris is very interesting, and to see it told in hieroglyphics is amazing. We weren't there to long because the ship was about to set sail for Luxor today. The rest of the day was at leisure to enjoy the pool or just sit out and watch the Nile go by.
At night we went to Luxor temple. We were taken there by horse drawn carriage and it was excellent. It was nice to see the temple at night, gave it a different perspective than all the other temples. But, wear bug spray that night!!!! For some reason we all got bit to pieces by mosquitos.
It was our last night on the ship, and it happened to be my birthday!!!! At dinner they brought me out a cake and sang to me in Arabic, I also had to dance around with the waiters. It was quite fun. Some called it an early night because if you were taking part in the hot air balloon you had to get up extra early the next day.....
