We ended our felucca ride on the Nile by getting off onto the M/S River Hathor, a Nile river cruise boat. This was our home away from home for the next five days and nights. It turned out that Vicky and I didn’t get much in the way of pictures of this boat. It wasn’t usually easy to see it, even when we docked, as we were usually docked by tying on to other boats that were already docked. The boat slept about 30 people and was quite a nice place to stay.

The first photo is just Vicky and I sitting on the sun deck watching Egypt float by. We spent most of our time up on deck. The temperature was almost always over 100 degrees, but we went to see Egypt, so we stayed up on deck.

Vicky is sitting in our room in the second photo and as you can see, we weren’t suffering with our accommodations.

In the third photo, I’m up on the bridge with the Captain, Ramdan Mohammed. From my extensive experience in house boating on Lakes Shasta and Trinity, I thought it would be good to share some of my vast knowledge. I think when Vicky took this photo, I was telling Ramdan to watch out for a sandbar in the river.
