Edfu - Temple of Horus, Temple of Kom Ombo, & Aswan

We carried on to the Temple of Kom Ombo where it stands on the Nile and in ancient times the sacred crocodiles basked in the sun on the riverbank.  This was a dedication to the local crocodile god Sobek  and Horus the Elder.

It was great to see these places as we had no people to really contend with as tourism is down by about 70%.  These people are suffering a lot and are really not happy with their government.  They feel the government is not doing anything for the people.

Aswan is a very relaxing little place with a wonderful Tourist Market.  We wondered around through the market looking and buying some souvenirs.  We stopped at a Cafe for tea and a felafel which was very good.  We continued on walking getting some comments.  We heard a lot of  Canada Dry when we would tell them where we were from.  This means Canada Dry no buy.  I guess we Canadians are cheap.  Fred was getting a lot of comments about his 3 wives and one person asked how many camels he would want.  I don' t think there was a trade deal yet.
