Pass by

Lake Nasser is a vast reservoir in southern Egypt and northern Sudan. It is one of the largest man-made lakes in the world. Before construction, Sudan was against the building of Lake Nasser because it would encroach on land in the North, where the Nubian people lived. They would have to be resettled.In the end Sudan's land near the area of Lake Nasser was mostly flooded by the lake. The lake is some 479 km (298 mi) long and 16 km (9.9 mi) across at its widest point, which is near the Tropic of Cancer. It covers a total surface area of 5,250 km2 (2,030 sq mi) and has a storage capacity of some 132 km3 (32 cu mi) of water. The lake was created as a result of the construction of the Aswan High Dam across the waters of the Nile between 1958 and 1970. The lake is named after Gamal Abdel Nasser, one of the leaders of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952, and the second President of Egypt, who initiated the High Dam project. It was President Anwar Sadat who inaugurated the lake and dam in 1970.

Abu Simbel is worth the drive

Abu Simbel was worth the drive. We went the last day of our cruise as an add-on through Egypt Cruise Era. Since it wasn’t too hot, our wonderful guide, Mahmoud Farah, planned for us to leave at a great time where we missed the crowds from the morning tour but it wasn’t too hot. It was about a 3 hour drive down there with a rest break midway. When we got there, Mahmoud did what he does best and explained all the things we were going to see and the process in which it was moved and used visual cards. Then he gave us free time to explore. There was hardly anyone there because it was the afternoon, which was rare and a treat. After the tour, Mahmoud pulled some strings to get us into a lunch at a nearby restaurant. The Tajin was soooo good!

Tourism in Egypt is very enjoyable

Tourism is beautiful in Egypt. My friends and I went on a tour of the pyramids and visited beautiful places. We saw the Sphinx and the pyramids and went to the Nile River. Egypt is the mother of the world.
