Egypt trip, Dec 2008 - A group outing in Luxor

After our trip to Karnak temple, we had free time for the rest of the day. Teefa, being the good tour leader he is, organised a group outing for us: a donkey ride and a dinner on the West Bank of the Nile.

Here is my donkey and me

Riding with my group. It was great fun

Of course, donkeys are used for day-to-day transport in Egypt too. Here is a little kid helping out in the farm.

After dinner, we went for a smoke of flavoured water-pipe.

On the way back, we walked past the Luxor temple. Accordingly to Teefa, we can see 80% of the temple by walking around the fence. And if you really desperate to see the inside, you can go to the third floor of the MacDonald's opposite the site :-P
