Egypt February 2010

The following group of images were taken in Cairo, Luxor and numerous ancient temples.

Here in Ontario something's old if its 100 years old or more. There we were walking in temples that date back 4,000 years (or more).

The people were always saying "Welcome". Any scam is fair when doing any kind of business with tourists but outside of earning a pound, the Egyptians were honest and helpful. Need directions just ask - but be prepared to visit someone's sister's shop - this is business after all. The trick was to judge the business from the non-business. Tired from walking, pay your 40 cents and buy a cup of tea or coffee. You're welcome to sit for as long as you please.

Can you spot Nancy in front of the Pyramid?

Hope you enjoy the shots as much as I enjoyed getting them.
