Itinerary description
|
Luckily without the patrol being watched by today's as well as yesterday's route. The dangerous point that the police are afraid of is how I learned from El Minya until just before Luxor, where there have been attacks on the road to touring buses. So after Luxor yesterday, but today, from Edfu to Aswan, I was surprised to go late and take photos. And of course I could go faster but the road was very bad, almost 30 kilometers before Aswan and I was afraid of the tires. In two places, works were done and I went down and walked, because the road was soil. I walked through villages with shed houses but in the middle of the village to dominate a large modern building: it was the school. About a quarter of the village's huts, more than a thousand students and students dressed uniformly, go to school hanging on the Datsuns, but I also noticed trains that functioned as Schools. Most kids are chasing you to stop you from playing, so the trick I did and catch when I found them was to go as slow as I could and to show the tired. If I was going fast I was chasing. :-) So I reached the southernmost point of Egypt that I was aiming for.
