Dear Shaded Viewers,

This is what I woke up to this morning. Stay tuned for my photos from the Nubian villages of Elephantine Island. It was hot and sunny today and now it’s freezing. Typical desert weather. I am exhausted and relaxing in my bedroom of my suite enjoying my night view of the Nile. Tomorrow is the long drive to the Temples of Abu Simbel.

 

Love,

Glenn Belverio
