We boarded the feluccas at aswan and arrived in Luxor today after 2 days of sailing for only 42kms...I cant even begin to tell you how much of a highlight this was for me - even though i am now really sick. We had plenty of sunshine but the nights were absolutley freezing. The deck of the felucca was just one big mattress with cushions and blankets, so you can imagine [View Full Entry]
