By speed boat it went to the Valley of the Queens.

First we visited 3 Toombs.
Toombs of Rameses I, Rameses III and Merenptah

My favourite was the smallest of Rameses I as the colours were best preserved.
Next was Hatshepsut’s Temple
A very impressive temple.

Hatshepsut is portrayed with calf ears.
Hatshepsut dealt with Myrrh trees – shipped them out to other places.

This is an old remaining myrrh tree root at the foot of the temple.
On the way back we stopped by the 2 Collosi of Memnon

Great photos, Ute. I’m sure you brought back some souvenirs. I have a gorgeous alabaster scarab on my kitchen shelf and also a lovely blue Ibis.
Thank you, I did bring a Alabaster scarab back and a small papyrus, also 2 scarfs from the market.
Your trip must have been fabulous. All the pics made us feel we were there too. A visit of a life time! Thanks for sharing.
It really was a lifetime holiday for me. Thank you.

Fabulous! Have you seen the workers’ tombs? They prepared those for themselves and I loved them the best of all. 🙂
I have seen them yes, it was so interesting to see how they worked so many years ago.
