Egypt – from a coach window – photos

Travelling from Karnak we headed off for lunch. The destination was the Hilton situated on the Nile.

As we went through town I took some shots to show a little of the life of the city.

I wanted to capture something of a different culture.

It is always strange to me to see people carrying things on their heads – yet it is a common sight in Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

Do the women really walk paces behind the men? And are those heavy black robes comfortable in this heat?

A roundabout with a difference.

Christian churches. That is a little unexpected.

Friendly people.

Musicians awaiting an audience.

Responsibility starts early.

Overseen by religion.
