Looks inviting? now read the reason for todays blog from the land of the Pharaos
This first step from the nile is one meter the highest the Nile will come when the barrage is closed in Quena 45 kilometers towards the mediteranian sea from this point.
This is The little white Egret ' that fish near the Nile cruisers
First thing in the mornings we can fullfill a life long dream of going ballooning over the valley of the Kings and the tombs and temples of Thebes. What one these days may call a magical mist-ery tour, mist or rather smoke being the appropriate word. I wonder if we can call it a migical polluted atmosephere tour
it will go better with the theme of this blogspot.
Its a lovely clear day today or rather would be if the fires of the sugar cane fields had not been lit in the night. it must be a different way of making the magic of a balloon ride come to reality. up up and away and into the mist we decend, I wonder what we shall see today certainly not the valley of the kings, the balloons are restricted from going over that area now. we now have to follow the path of the smoke along the sugar fields maybe we shall go over the farmers houses try catching them unawares sleeping on the roofes or whatever the farmers get up to at 6.00 in the morning on the roof. they certainly will not see us coming through the clouds of smoke they made in the night, can catch them with their pants down or galabeyas up. so to speak,
click on the photo you may see a balloon.

Terrible though it is to see the Egret covered in oil it does make for a good image.
