St Simeon monastry

Toilets





Camels and Aswan viewed from monastry.

My ride for the day.

Giza job?

Old Aswan Dam (1898 - 1902 AD!)

Boat to Seheyl Island.

Inscriptions on the rocks at Seheyl Island.

I think this is the 'famine stele' from the Ptolemic period, recounting a 7 year famine during the reign of Zoser (2667 - 2648BC).

Walking back down with Nubian Village in background. One of the only villages that didn't have to move after the dam was built.



About to be rowed back again.

A 'fiteer' Egyptian pizza.

A fruit fiteer that did not survive my rucksack.
