Well hello there
Back from my two weeks in Egypt and boy am I glad to be back on home soil. Had a fantastic time and all that, but it wasn't a restful Holiday - not in the least. I took well over five hundred photos, but I figured I'd just post a select few here in my art thread. I'd love to do a journal type thingy, but I think a whole topic about me is just a bit over board XD
Anyways, first up we have...
That's right. It's Munchlax by the Nile!
Me and Munchlax
I saw some truly beautiful temples, which made the whole trip. The temple of Edfu was the sole reason I originally wanted to go. It's dedicated to a number of Gods, but the main God that was worshipped there was the Falcon-headed Horus, who is my favourite. Seriously, I've never seen something so magnificent.
These are the two remaining Obelisks at Karnak.
I made a little friend. The animals and birds were trusting. Where I stayed was on a little Island on the Nile itself, which was like a little oasis.
Hoopoe. Best bird. Ever.

Like I said, I have hundreds of photos of all the temples I visited. Edfu was like a dangerous adventure - my resort didn't run organised trips to see it, so I caught a taxi. It was a good hour and a half ride away from where I was and lets just say I think the whole thing could have gone rather sour. At one point some men from a Bazaar separated me from my group, but I fended them off and even rescued someone else XD
I discovered that I have a commercial value of six camels (Yes, people tried to buy me). It's a good thing I have a fair sense of humour XD
That's it for now, else this post would be huge. 'Tis nice to be back ^^
