Start in Aswan for a few days, then a couple of days on the nile to luxor and a few days there, then to cairo before heading home. It's 2 weeks in total and lots of cool stuff including a nights stay out in the desert, a balloon ride etc. I'm looking forward to it ![]() Hopefully your one will be better than mine in Morocco. After accepting the local berber tea (which tasted foul), the beds were just mats on the ground with smelly horse (camel?) blankets for warmth. A mouse also got into our tent and kepy us awake all night and the following morning the berber tea gave me a dose of gastro for a week. Happy days! Dennis

I'm already thinking of the star trail photos! Ah, I wish I had that option. We had to carry everything we could in on a camel so the tripod got left behind in favour of a change of clothes Dennis

Foreign teas are best avoided it seems. that was on the short list! 500px

Mine loves me so long as I take her on regular holidays ... the one she has in mind at the moment is a cruise to St Petersburg, although she can only find one that has enough days in St Petersburg and I can't afford that at the moment!!
