Horses and the Horus Temple in Edfu

This day we went to the Horus Temple at Edfu by horse and carriage then relaxed on board the boat all day on the way to Luxor. The best part was seeing the local villages we we slowly made our way down the Nile (Nile flows from South to North).

The horse and carriage convoy of tourists was quite the scene (see video). On the way back to the boat, the carriage wheel ran into and got stuck in the temple gate. The driver pulled the wheel out and in a few minutes we were off to the races back to the boat.

Our ship was very lively with a girls school trip.

Vendors risking their lives

Imagine having to do laundry in the river.
