Abdullah at sunset. Behind are the Pharaonic Sands and the edge of the Tombs of the Nobles, Kitchener Island (we just call it the Island of the Plants in Arabic), and the wall of the Mövenpick Hotel on Elephantine.

Come out with us for a sunset sail!

Our home in 1907. We sail the same kind of boat today, though with the dams you need other transportation to Philae Temple now.

Our boat is docked at the workshop for the rest of the week. After five years, we've saved up enough money to get it cleaned and repainted. We love our boat, but it needs the work! We're excited to get it back this weekend. In the meantime, we're still sailing with friends' boats!

Our friend Adil just got a great review on TripAdvisor. Adil is fantastic, and we both work with him sometimes. If you're coming to Aswan and we're not around, we definitely recommend him. If you have had a chance to come out on the Nile with us, we'd love to have your review on TripAdvisor, too!
