Egypt

In October 2024, I toured archeological and cultural sites in Giza and Cairo, along the Nile River and Lake Nasser, the tour choreographed by Odysseys and led by Egyptologist Tarek Morsy.  Often we were the first inside ancient tombs, passageways and temples, ahead of busloads of tourists.


As always, I may have taken some liberties with the colors I found.
