At Aswan (3).

Got up at 4, the chores and was out of the boat by 5. Went on a horse-drawn carriage to the Edphu temple, again of the vintage of 265 BC. The gold deities have all been taken away and the temple bears a mute testimony of the vandalism carried out by the marauders!

Our horseman was Mustafa and the horse, Rhambo.

On return, it was leisure time. Caught my 40 winks and got up by a half past 5, when we went for a walk at Luxor.

A quiet evening which had the highlight of Sophie’s belly dancing for us and wasn’t she graceful in her moves?
