Today we boarded the boat for the Nile cruise. It is like a Mississippi river boat and essentially a five star hotel on the water. The boat stayed docked in Aswan for the first night to allow for some tours around Aswan, including a tour to botanical gardens on Kitchener's Island, the Philae temple, and visits to the High Dam and unfinished obelisk.

Curtis spotted this camel and Trish got this great picture.
