Old town Aswan


Last night we went on a horse and carriage ride around the old town of Aswan.

To say that it is an unattractive place is the understatement of the year. However it was interesting and extremely busy, and it was nice riding up and down the streets.

This morning we went out for a stroll and to find a coffee shop. First of all, nightmare of nightmares, we had to get past a pack of dogs.

They took no notice of us at all, so I don't know what all the fuss was about really!

We spent the rest of the day sitting around in the sunshine on the boat, which is now sailing back towards Luxor.


I ran out of room yesterday, but on our visit to the Nubian village and on a whim, I got a henna hand tattoo.


I like it a lot, and the lady who did it was lovely. It only last for a couple of weeks so will be gone before I have time to get bored of it.
