This morning Benjamin, Hannah and I went for a quick swim after breakfast. They we went on the taxi boat with Ali across the Nile to go visit the Temple of Hatshepsut. I really liked the temple, and the guide said to remember to call it the temple of “hot chicken soup”! It was hot there, and no shade.

We left there and went to visit The Valley of the Queens which wasn’t very far away. We went into a couple of tombs there and explored around, and then made our way back across the Nile on the boat taxi again. We went swimming again, had dinner and went to bed. It was a full day!
