Day 80 and 81: Luxor, Egypt...

Day 80: Today went to Luxor, it's another city by the Nile. Went to go see the Temple Karnak, which was quite impressive and was dedicated to the Theban gods. Thebes was the capital of the south (Upper Egypt). Karnak was the most important place to worship during the height of the Theban power. The Egyptians orginally had it then the Romans converted to a christian church when they took over Egypt. Then headed to the Luxor Temple. Then went to the Luxor Museum where I saw a mummy of a man. He was quite short.



Day 81: Today went to the Valley of the Kings, which was quite a sight to see all the tombs of the different kings. They had quite magnificient drawings of the different gods on the wall and how life would be in the afterworld.
