We love this view across the fields to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. An impressive temple from the outside.

This time of year there are many Nile Monitor Lizards laying in the sun just above the water line. Some can be quite large.

We went to the Rammesseum and here Pauline is just behind the base of the colossal statue of Ramesses II and above her is where it fell after a massive earthquake many years ago. An international team hopes to lift this back into position in the near future.

We celebrated Graham's birthday on the 4th May at Genesis and we all had a really great time though Raad, the Great Dane, was the star attraction.

It had to be Medinet Habu and this small room has just been cleaned and is now open to the public. The colours are lovely and here we see Ramesses III larger than life in all his glory.

Birthday's everywhere this month with Pauline's on the 23rd and here Pauline with Tieb and Mona celebrate little Rabat's 1st birthday.
