Aswan - cruising the River Nile in a felucca - visit to a Nubian village

"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 went further upstream and docked at a Nubian village"

"Then it was dinner time
Our meals were brought up on the heads of the Nubian ladies
- she had four pots on her head and walked upstairs with them
Anyway it was great - we had soup and kofta and potato rice and pasta
So yummy!!"

Dinner is served!!!
