Hamdi again!

This was one of the first spots where we really started to get an idea of what the temples might have looked like to the Egyptians back when they were fully decorated.


I was obsessed with the beauty of the tops of all the columns







color again

Flare! And a random greco/roman statue. These slowly started showing up at the temples we saw the Greeks and the Romans also added to the temples when they ruled Egypt.
When I said earlier that we were docked at the temple, I mean that quite literally, we just walked off the boat and right up to the temple.


Next up, cruising down the Nile.

It's so neat to see the colors. You can only imagine with the desert area being so colorless, they'd want to bring in as much as possible. It's amazing that it survived this long.
