Typical homes in El Marise where Animal Welfare Of Luxor, AWOL, has just purchased land on which to build their medical centre. Click Here to find out more about AWOL.

Tufty and Marcy sit on our living room carpet. They are both quite lovely and don't they look good for local dogs.

Still our favourite tomb, that of Roy, in the Theban hills. We take any excuse to visit it. Quite small but the colours are lovely. Click Here to see more of this tomb.

We have a good choice of fruit and vegetables at this time of year and here Pauline buys what is needed for today. As it is becoming warmer every day lettuce is now coming to an end of its season.

The dig at the temple of Amenhotep III has started again and a much larger wooden frame has now been erected to place more of the statue that was uncovered last year back into its original place. Click Here to see what it looked like in March 2007.

Excavations are well under way at the Roman fort on the top of the Theban hills. We enjoy the walk around this part of the hills and it is amazing just what is coming to life up there.
