Any of my readers know where this comes from, could it be Abu Simbel? I know it is on the way from Luxor to Aswan…
Dear Shaded Viewers,
Inspired by Glenn Belverio's post and his excitement on his impending travel to Egypt, I found these images from my only trip to Egypt, December 1990 invited by Dik Brandsma…
A rare moment in flat shoes and being practical…..
I had just moved to Paris, October 3, 1990 when Dik Brandsma, who I knew for a grand total of 3 weeks, if that, invited me to spend Christmas in Egypt with him. It is not that he was a total stranger, practically, but he was a dear friend of one of my close friends, Stephen di Pietri, and that was how/why we met. It was a really funny and great trip. Could have gone either way as it is not easy for a loner like me to be 24/7 with anyone and on top of it, someone I hardly knew.
At any rate since Glenn Belverio is leaving for Cairo in a few weeks I'd love him to see these amazing
Egyptian hieroglyphics, so Abu Simbel?
Later,
Diane
