Nearby Landscape -- The Colossi
of Memnon
Off to the right of the parking area are farmers
fields and houses. Young men, old women and boys and girls were
out working while we were there. They came up to sell oranges
when we got off the bus.
It has to be something to live and work in
the sight of such antiquity. But I guess you just get used to
it and find it humdrum after a while...?
