Luxor - Donkeys and the valley of the kings





Another great hotel with the awesome view of the Mountains around the valley of the kings and a pool on the rooftop to help us enjoy the view.The Luxor temple looked awesome all lit up, unfortunately my camera not so hot with the lit scenes.
We rode our donkeys to the valley of the Kings (over hour plodding, maybe 15 minutes with bum off seat). Stink bit is I dont have photos of that day ( we wont go into that story : ))might update later after after ive caughtup with some of the others who did get some. BUt to help - picture this : Me and Katie with bras on the outside of our shirts aswell as underneath : ) apparently you needed double support, was definitely true - found that one out on the way home when Saeed was too embarresed to let us keep them on - hillarious! Dont worry we did have jackets over top for the most part.
Donkeys were fun, mine had first gear and fourth, not much inbetween. Definitely a good inner thigh work out!
Valley of the Kings was also amazing! So so big and we climbed the mountain and stood where Osama bin Laden Team snipered the tourists, freaky. Havnt done such good mountain climbing in ages! Unfortunately no photos of the valley either but we bought the postcards from the egyptians half way up the mountain - as you do.
