It was another early one 6am and we left the feluccas and boarded our bus to set off for another long day of temples and hot sun.
Firstly we visited Kom Ombo temple where we all used a ‘normal’ toilet. It was a cool temple where they worshipped the crocodile God and so had crocodiles in a well and also mummified crocodiles. There were pictures to show that they did surgery as well as pregnancy tests which I found interesting.
We then went to Edfu Temple which was huge and by this time it was very very hot! So we got some ice blocks like callippos yum!. In this temple we also had a guy who showed us up these stairs and randomly pointed to pictures on 
the wall: ‘Cleopatra, scorpion, cow’, because he showed us these things he wanted money glen gave him 1 Egyptian pound (10pence)
We then made our way back to the hotel for a long awaited shower. We did some washing and also went down the street to have KFC which was one of the best KFC meals I've ever had, they even brought it to your table. Oh and while on the subject of takeaway in Egypt they have Mcdeliver….McDonalds home delivery!
After lunch we went back and had a swim in the hotel pool with a bar in the pool so u didn’t have to get out of the water. That night we went to an Irish
pub….weird I know. We had steak and chips and also the jewellery guy who makes up the cartouche with your name in hryoglyphics was there so we ordered ourselves a few pieces. There was also a night club downstairs and we stayed till about 11pm. Katrina and Steve left with us and we still got harassed on the streets for lifts even though our hotel was just a few hundred meters away..
