So, there is a lot to get done, but I'm making my lists . . . and checking them 3 and 4 times. I read through all of our travel documents the other day and it's becoming a lot more real! J and I also watched a few Egypt TV shows recently. We happened upon a show on PBS that was very interesting and showed me the type of train and river cruise boat we'll be riding. A co-worker let me borrow a couple of DVDs with a wonderful movie about the Nile. It's so beautiful and we cannot wait to see it in person - I cannot believe we soon will be seeing it in person!
Just a sample of what we'll be seeing (thanks to Google image search for these pictures - soon we'll have our own!!)
Abu Simbel
The Great Pyramid and Sphinx
