JAYNE WITH A WHY


My life has endured some drastic changes over the past 5yrs. I've moved continents, moved countries, lost my partner in life, lost my dogs, lost the bikes & no doubt about it, lost more than a few marbles along the way. I'm fucked up but valiantly fighting off sanity, which snaps at my heels at regular intervals. I swear a lot. Tell someone who cares.

    IMAGES OF LUXOR

    As promised, a heap of photos from our (way too short) trip to Luxor. We hired a personal tour guide, who was very informative & patient with our questions.
    We took in the 'classical sights' of the West Bank of the Nile, including the Valley of the Kings, the mortury temple of Queen Hatshepsut (Deir El Bahri), Colossi of Memnon, the Temple of Ramses III & tombs of the Nobles. On the East Bank of the Nile, we walked around the awesome temple of Karnak, with it's truly magnificent Hypostle Hall of 134 columns & the temple of Amenophis III.




    View of the Nile at sunset, from the hotel room.


    I got dizzy just watching this whirling dervish! He was brilliant!


    Looking up to the ceilings, which thanks to being in the shade, still have plenty of the original colour.














    So there you have it! Click on each photo to appreciate the beauty & brilliance of ancient Egyptians. If I had a dollar for every time I said "wow!" I'd be rich today! There's still so much to see & another trip - hopefully a cruise down the Nile - is something we'd like to do sometime in the future...........................*sigh*
