Egyptian mummies, shopping, sailing & eating

On the last day of November, we visited the Mummy Museum in Luxor, went to a local shopping area, boarded a felucca for a sail, and had dinner.

After the Mummy Museum, we went to a shopping area that wasn’t frequented quite so much by tourists. I would have loved to load up on spices except for the admonition from our hosts that we would probably be better off if we didn’t buy food stuffs on the street.

That evening, we hired a traditional felucca to go for a sail but in order to sail, you need to have moving air. Then we had a nice dinner of local fare.
