After a week of diving the Red Sea, I travelled to Luxor. My pics from diving will need to wait until I get home, I have no way of charging my laptop unfortunately, so for now…
The day started with a trip to see Hatshepsut Temple. She was the first female leader of Egypt, who seemed to like shady business.
Later, exploring the The Valley of the Kings was amazing. We got there nice and early and from what I understand, I got off real lucky. No line ups to get into the tombs I’m told is rare, so I’ll take it.

After sweating out any extra water my system may have had on hand, we had a quick stop over in an alabaster shop. This stone is mined behind the Valley of the Kings and is famous in Egypt and all around the world. They immediately put me to work and complimented me by assuring me that I was a stronger than average woman.
Were there actual tombs in the pyramids? Are they the real thing or just staged for tourists? Have the real tombs or bodies been removed to another location? This is spectacular!!
Some parts of the tombs are still in there, but most were robbed other than King Tut, who’s mummy is still inside his tomb. All that’s left is what is on the walls that haven’t destroyed over the years.
