Karnak Temple
When I said that I was going to Egypt, a lot
of people who'd been there before said that this would be the
best part of the trip. At the time I was pie-eyed over going
to see the Great Pyramid, so I didn't believe them. However,
I now have to admit that they were right.
Karnak is located up the Nile, about an hour's
flight from Cairo. We got on board our ship there, and spent
the day between Karnak and Luxor, which is just on the other
side of town. There was once a sphinx-lined road connecting the
two, but that's been long gone, its pieces used to make people's
houses.
Yet another shame..., but I'm sure a few people
appreciated having unique bedposts.
