Carriage Rides and Dumpsters November 4th

Today we wake up and learn that instead of using the bus to get to our next temple that we are going to visit, we are instead going to have a carriage ride. Fun, safe, and relaxing right? Hahah. Our driver was crazy. Basically he wanted to race all the other carriages and risked our lives for it. Well maybe not really, but basically he did. We almost ran into a car and instead of running into the car, he had to move quickly so the back of us ran into a dumpster and totally knocked the thing out into the street. It was hilarious though. This ride took us to the Temple of Horace or also known as Temple of Edfu. Here, we learned the seven steps to make a tomb. 1) Dig. 2) Layer. 3) Decorate. 4) Turn black. 5) Carve. 6) Details. 7) Paint.

After this, we headed back to the ship and had lunch. Then in the afternoon we went to go to the Temple of Komombo. Here, there were some vendors that were being incredibly annoying and very pushy. We had to be very firm with them. The sunset here was beautiful and we got some pictures with it too.

After that we went back to the ship, had dinner, and later that night has a praise session on the deck of the boat. It was so beautiful just to sing as we cruised a long the Nile. Some of the people from the boat came and joined us, it was really awesome.
