If you've read the last two blog entries you can probably guess what's coming.
It's our last day in Aswan, and we're supposed to get on a felucca for a cruise, but first it's time to go round and round with the hotel again about hot water.
This time, in spite of 2 hours of talking to them and enlisting the help of our trusty guide, they just can't get it to work. So they offer to let us use another room - which sounds great, until Jen goes to the room to discover that someone just checked out of it. She chooses not to shower, and I take a quick cold shower.
We get on the felucca around 11 and spend a little time getting to know the other folks in our tour group. Then, lulled by the river we all nap - or at least I nap until I wake myself up with the snoring.
In addition to our feluccas there's a larger boat used for meals and the restroom. During dinner I get to proselytize about the Amazon Kindle. It's a great device, but most of these folks are Canadian, and I'm not sure they can (legally) buy one.
After dinner we sit around the table and have song time. When it gets to be my turn all I can think of is the "Dukes of Hazzard" theme song for some reason. I'm sure that left a great impression of America.
