The Summary
This was a two-week trip including time in Cairo before and after a week on the Nile in Upper Egypt. While the ship was not as promised, this was one of the best trips ever led by what may be the world's best tour director. I took a gazillion pictures that I am trying to get sorted out. Be patient with me and I'll get some of them posted as soon as I can.
