We were there in march 2006 and it was great weather.
Gee those photos make it even more enticing to go back and do a Nile cruise all the way to Asswan Dam....I can see it all now,laying on a chaise lounge....sipping a chilled wine.... two handsome men waving fans over me.....OOOOOPS....darn I guess I fainted...
Anyway I think a Nile cruise looks better and better.
