Ugh, again the photos are backwards, with the last shown first, etc. That noted, they are still very cool.
A watchtower from the Middle Ages.
Ho-hum, it's not from B.C.
Nothing to see here.
Nubian-designed AirBnBs are now
quite popular in Egypt, both with
people of means from Cairo, and
Brits looking for a cheaper way
to worship the sun in the winter.
The union of the snake is
on the climb.
Editor: I see Duran Duran lyrics made it to the blog. Is there any song lyrics from 1980s pop that you won't use? Writer: And the problem is?
Coptic cross from its days

The outer courtyard and the pylon.
The entry way.
Beautiful line of columns.
Beautiful Greek-style capital
on the top of a column. Note
the prolific hieroglyphics on
the wall behind.
Water taxis at rest. Tons of them.
