There is only one way to describe the train ride last night - MEMORABLE. While it wasn't the worst train I've ever been on, it clearly wasn't the best for a 14 hour trip, but nonetheless I survived and will be better prepared for the trip back north from Luxor to Cairo on Friday. We arrived late so we didn't do much apart from crash on our beds and have little nap (I didn't sleep a wink on the train, there were six of us in this little cabin with all our bags everywhere). We did this eveing go for dinner at a tradition Nubein place and have some traditional Egyptian food - Yummo I say. It's a early night now, I plan to be fast asleep by 10pm, we've got a early start 2.30am for our trip down to Abu Simbel. We need to leave early to be apart of the police convoy to protect us, it shall be fun. We star our Nile cruise tomorrow when we get back so that shall be a lot of fun.
Until next time, Keep it Real.

ReplyDeleteI wont worry or anything now.
Ah it was nothing just a govt requirement. They want to keep the tourists safe.
