qb][/QUOTE]Yes, dodgy tummy - they're notorious, all those people on a boat with limited clean water for food preparation and hygeine and on the Nile with mosquitos everywhere - I'm not kidding when I say everyone gets sick!
I wasn't brave at all, I nearly pissed myself on more than one occassion - I'll elucidate if you're interested!!!
Hatshepsut's temple is great - looks like a 1960s concrete car park [img]tongue.gif[/img] and only 1 image survived the 'damnatio memoriae' which followed her death[/QB][/QUOTE]
Ooh, do elucidate! I can retaliate with tales of the 'potty' the bedouins gave me, when it became obvious that I couldn't go to the poo pit without getting shit all over myself....
The damnatio memoriae - yes. Couldn't cope with having a woman in charge. Plus ca change, plus ca la meme chose... Is her temple not gorgeous then? From the descriptions in my book, it sounds fabulous. Terraces flowing one into the other, at varying heights... No?
