While we slept, the boat chugged up river towards Kom Ombo. It arrived some time during the night and moored somewhere nearby. Early in the morning, it sailed to Kom Ombo itself.
We were there shortly after sunrise. The light was nice, the air was cold and the crowds were sparse. Perfect.
It is in pretty good shape.
Sunlight peaking in through columns and such made for some neat highlights
From there is was a short sail to Aswan harbor. The cruise boats are stacked up 3 and 4 deep in places. Not a particularly pleasant sight, really. But luckily there are other things to keep ones eyes occupied.
The tombs of the nobles is across the river on the west bank
And there are always the pretty boats
and the not so pretty boats
Next up, the high dam and Philae
