At 2 AM today we headed to the airport to fly to Upper Egypt
and begin a week's vacation that includes a cruise down the River Nile.
As the plane was descending into
Abu Simbel shortly after dawn, we
circled over Lake Nasser which was impounded by the High Dam in the
late 1960's. I took a picture from the airplane and found out afterward
that the picture framed the temple itself.
