After I left the seminary, I headed for the airport where I met up with my tour group. We set out on a plane that was supposed to leave at 5:45 p.m., but was on "Egyptian time" :), so it was later than that. Then we landed in Luxor - an unexpected and to the best of our knowledge unscheduled stop, which added another hour to the trip. So it was quite late before we arrived in Aswan. Then we had to take a bus from the airport to a boat across the Nile to the hotel, which you see well lit behind Grace in the picture. The good news is that when we got there, we had the best meal we've had since we've been in Egypt. It really was quite marvelous. Then we all too quickly went to bed, to sleep, to awake at 6:00 a.m. and load out by 6:30 to head to another plane to Abu Simbel.
