Days 4 & 5 - Nile Cruise
We had a luxurious couple of days on our cruise ship, enjoying very much the fact that we had en-suite bathrooms!  We stopped a couple of times on the way to Luxor to visit temples.  The evenings had some fun entertainment but unfortunately the sun wasn't very hot so there wasn't much opportunity for a winter tan!

We got horses and carriages to Edfu Temple, with strict instructions not to give baksheesh!
