Saturday was a day of relaxing. Headed down to the water in the am to find a ride across the river to a Nubian Village. We met Jimmy, King of the Nile who toured us down the river explaining things along the way. He stopped at a Nubian Village to show us around. We went to see a baby crocodile and then had tea in this family's home. Once we were finished our tea we continued on through the village. He told us there were 4 - 5 thousand people in that village, not sure where they all lived. We returned to the boat to tour the other side of the island. We found out that in some spots on the Nile it was 50 m deep and in some areas the rocks were showing up. We had to cut our boat ride short as Jimmy, King of the Nile, ran out of gas. No worries we got to shore. From here we wondered around enjoying our last hours in Egypt. We fly out this evening to Amman, Jordan.
