Jeff Hardy 2010 Hair Cut

J25 - Nubia Museum / Back to Cairo

Unable to wake up early today! We will go not on the west side to eat at home ... Adam (see the guide book). Instead, we visit the Nubia Museum schedules so inconvenient (9h-13h and 18h-22h) that we could not visit before.
One of the most modern museums in the country with the new guy at Saqqara. The aim is to present the Nubian civilization in history from items rescued from the waters of Lake Nasser by UNESCO during the great campaign of excavations. Beautiful rooms, well presented, which outline what was this civilization, far from the cliché of "uninhabited desert area" around Lake Nasser, which was spontaneously. By cons where is the media? Not a video, not a single dynamic aspect and without any bench to sit and take time to read the signs! It's a shame because it makes the visit very exhausting. Fortunately there is the museum's website to catch these errors!

quiet afternoon on the roof of our hotel between swimming, writing and take a nap before our overnight train to Cairo.

If there was something to do again, it would be to spend only 2 days and 2 days Luxor here which would have reached 4 days to go really relax in Sinai ... as explained here. The board is launched for the readers ...
major payments of the day (for 2):
Resto : 40 THE
Nubia Museum : 20 LE / person.
Water : 10
Carriage : 5 LE (we've finally succumbed ... but chose a driver that we have not yelled at!)
Resto : 35 THE
Train : 64 LE / pers. (Aswan - Luxor - Only 1 week in advance. ATTENTION frequently full, even off season. We took the first class. Even second is very clean and the seats recline surout. Airconditioning super strong , predict its down! The sleeper train but are also dependent on a private company and is overpriced. A book for people with a little over budget!)
Taxi: 5 THE

>> To J26 - The Citadel / Dervish-turners
