This morning I woke up in Egypt for the first time. The Hotell we were at last night was wonderful and I had a exselent nights rest. As I sead befor we were up bright and early this morning. I woke up at 4:00 am and got all packed up and redady for the day befor puting our lugage out side the room for the Buttlor to come and pick it up. Folowing that Pary and I went down to the loby of the Hotell were there was box breakfast wating for us. Most of wich was farly good. We all borded our bus with our armed gards and military escort and headed off to Ciro’s Air Port.

We arived at the air port and went throu the first step of securtity as a group checking our bages. Once our checked lugage had bean checked we took it to the next stop were we had the lugage cheked and taged to go on the plain. The it was off to the air port terminal. We went throu another sed of security scanners for our cary on bages and then we wated for a few minust befor they let up board the bus to the plain. The terminal was jamed packed and only a few seast were left. We all boarded the buss that drove us all the way acrossed the airport to our plain sitting out ont eh tarmack. Then we bored the plain like the ones you see in the movies using the out side stair cases taht are driven up to the plain.

On this flite I had a window seat. That was nice. I injoyed looking out at the gournd belown. Once we arived at Lusar airport we borded anonther bus in the same way and from there they took us to the Terminal where our guide was waiting for us and stamped our pass port and let us thru security on out the the air port.

We then made a quick stop by our curse boate wich is one of then icest ones out of 300 active ships on the Nile River. We all then headed off to see a temple. Here there was an Oblisk, a wonderful internce with Liones going down the path way to the enterence of the toum. There were several places for flages poles to be put up in little niches in the walles.

Our next stop was the perumery. Here we had the oporutnity to smell several photes, and to percous vases and other related goods. There all were very butiful. Good price for them to.

From here it was back to the boat for lunch at 1:00 pm. Folowing lunch I took a nap for abotu 3 howers befor departing this evning to a julers shop and a place where we can get cotton T-sherts with our name inscribed in hylerglifs. Then we went to Luxar temple to see it as the sun set and there lights came on. It has ben an amazing day to get to see so much and learn about the many of the faros and there history.

Latter tonight we went to supper folowing our return to the boat. Supper is at 8:00 pm here. At supper the water was playing several games with us using toth pickes and making shapes. It was a lot of un. Folowing supper I went up on deck and wached the stares and lett the worm breas off the desder come over me.

Tomaor will be a wonderful day when I get to see the Tumes of the faros. I am realy looking fowar to that.
