We're back in the US. We had a wonderful trip!Here Sheila's reflection on our KMT.
Here's Prof. Manu's Departure Message from KMT.
This is a free day. Some folks rested. Others visited the museum and the local archeological sites. Patricia went on a private felucca ride on the Nile.And yes, shopping was on the agenda for others.Our day ended with a Nubian Dance Performance.
I believe Patricia heard about this trip from Dawn, another one of our participants. Both Patricia and Dawn are friends/colleagues to Karen, whose videolog you may have already seen.
Karen is on this trip with her sister, Sheila, and two other colleagues/friends. What a wonderful experience to share with those closest to you!
How comforting to learn that it was only 135 degrees celcius yesterday morning at 11:00 am in Abu Simbel. All I can say is that the trip was well worth the early morning hustle to get to the airport.
The first part of the day will be spent exploring the Nobles Tombs in Aswan. Then we are going to spent some time in the Nubian Villages on Elephantine (Yebu) Island. The capstone for many people on the trip was our audience with Elder Hamdi. (Ms. Bonnie mentioned him in her videolog.)
