The first time I tried Koshari (a vegetarian dish) was during a visit to Egypt. It was a lunch staple on our river boat as we cruised down the Nile from Luxor to Aswan. This is our small river boat. The larger, more luxurious boats dwarfed ours, but our smaller size...

White Desert, Egypt #travel

White Desert 5, Egypt #travel

Cruising the Nile
This photo doesn’t look real, but I can tell you for a fact that it is. This is the view from our ship as we cruised down the Nile River. There is a thin band of green on either side of the river with pasture for grazing and crops. Beyond this band of green is desert...
