Aswan - cruising the River Nile in a felucca

"The colours of the landscape were amazing
Sand dunes right up to the river bank and camels grazing on lush grass just a bit upstream
We just basically cruised around for the afternoon!
The sun was fantastic and there were so many boats on the water"

"We found a nice spot and went swimming
We just jumped off the boat into the river - it was so lovely
and the first time I have been swimming since I left home over a year ago!
I wished that we had longer in the water but it was dinner time"
