It is sad to see how few people are visiting Egypt. On the first Nile tour when we left the private sound and light show there was a LONG line of hundreds of people waiting to go in for the show. Last night a maximum of about 50 people.
Today was our first real touring day and Memphis was also pretty empty about 50 people including our 22 people. The Highlights Group left the Do it All Group in the dust and headed off to the Step Pyramid. We were eating lunch when Hossam arrived and said the other group were still at the Step Pryamid. They must be at least an hour behind. Then we went off to the Giza Pyramids to touch the stones and take pictures, visited the overlook and the Sphinx and now we are back at the hotel at 3.00 pm.
It was a good weather day, NOT hot at all but with a wind keeping it cooler but also kicking up the sand.
Tonight we leave at 6.15pm for our private showing at the Egyptian Museum. I am sure the museum is still busy during the day so looking forward to the opportunity to see the King Tut exhibit with just our group.
On a personal note for the first Nile Group Hany has a brand new baby boy, one month old. Hossam who I believe had no children when we were here now has TWO boys and Henry is holding at two and he said dealing with his teenage daughter he thinks it will stay that way! The three guys are all asking me about you all and I got them up to date on all the news.
