Luxor to Cairo – Nile River Cruise – The End

Our amazing cruise has come to an end and sadly this morning we disembark and transfer to the airport for our flight back to Cairo.  Luckily, we’re comforted by the fact that for the next couple of nights, we’ll be very comfortably accommodated at the opulent Marriott Hotel.  I particularly like the practice of individually escorting guests to their tables at breakfast time, even though they handle huge groups of guests.  People rushing for tables in the morning, is not my idea of a good way to start the day.

The weather has gone a little cooler.  Normally you would consider temperatures of approximately 25ºC to be quite pleasant, but after two weeks being in temperatures of 40ºC, we were all feeling a little chilly.

We had a free evening tonight and didn’t feel compelled to rush out of the hotel to dine elsewhere.  The Marriott has a number of nice restaurants and it was nice to dine in the relaxing outdoor Garden Promenade Cafe.
