At about 10am our group left Aswan by motorboat. We then boarded our Bob Marley themed Felucca to begin our sail down the Nile. The rest of the day was spent sunning,reading, playing uno and gin rummy and eating...and eating.
After a day of lounging for several hours "Cleopatra style" we all went up to the upper deck to enjoy the sunset over the Nile - absolutely amazing.
We docked the felucca just after dinner and joined our crew on the bank of the Nile. We gathered around a bonfire, learned a few Nubian songs and danced. A little while later we all retired to the lower level of the felucca and slept sleepover style in a circle (Egypt is cold at night!).
In the morning we enjoyed our final meal on the upperdeck before saying our final goodbye to the crew.
