Temple of Luxor, avenue of sphinxs
Bill and I at the temple of Hatshepsut. My son and daughter when looking at the pics that day said I looked like a strawberry and burst into laughter.(Aren't kids wonderful!!)

Terrific photos. We were im Egypt two years ago, and are going back again next week
Can't wait,
Fantastic place...we were there about 10-12 years ago. The Valley of the Kings is amazing. Did you manage to get to Cairo? The pyramids are a sight to behold, but it's so disappointing that Cairo has spread so much you can pretty much drive right up to the pyramids now.

Didn't get to Cairo on this visit but will be going next year, hopefully. 1 week cruise down the nile with excursions and 1 week in Luxor.
This visit we did Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut, Luxor Temple, Luxor Museum, Mummification Museum and Karnak Temple(wow!)
Brilliant hol, albeit I took ill a few days before we came home and was unable to eat anything for 8 days.Even now I can only eat the smallest amount (on the plus side though I could lose a few pounds which wouldn't be too bad)

Fantastic place to visit, and it sounds like you packed a lot in! My wife also got sick, on the train from Luxor to Cairo. I think it was the yoghurt [xx(]

Well, we have just returned from Egypt.....and it was great. This was our second time to visit and I have to say it was even better the second time around.
We had a Nile cruise for 7 days - food was really excellent, and then a week in El Gouna. No evidence of any "problems"...in fact we felt very safe, particularyly in El Gouna.
If anyone is thinking of visiting Egypt, in the near future, I would be more than happy to help in any way I can.
Now, all I have to do is adjust to the real world - dinners, washing etc[msncry]
