We had a full day of Luxor sightseeing, but not the normal visitation plan. We toured the excavation work of my Egyptian colleagues including this beautiful false door from the time of Queen Hatshepsut that had been reused in the construction of the Roman baths.
We re-visited the interesting bath complex that was built in front of Karnak Temple during the Ptolemaic period.
The cloudy skies of the morning turned into a full-blown hamseen this evening. Our eyes were gritty after. Tonight we made the rounds of plumbing stores in Luxor. I lost count how many we stopped at but, in the end, we may actually have a solution for a dripping air conditioner and that's all that matters. I was very impressed with the orderliness of the last shop. A sight for sore eyes.
