| Caption: | Great Temple Egypt Ramses Abu Simbel Cruiseboat Foreground Departing Cruisewith another arriving from a Lake Nasser cruise on a particularly hazy morning - the previous day had been blue skies and scorching hot sun. Busy in th early morning with coach and aircraft tours arriving from Aswan and Luxor. For cruiseboat tours a quiet period is often around 10.30am and is the time for the best light on the facade - afternoon visits mean the front is in the shade. |
