Final Felucca – Wednesday 25 April 2007

Well its almost time… today we head off on Safari but as this is one of the last days I’ll be in Cairo we arranged a felucca ride. Wesley sent out a general email to the usual suspects plus some newer hashers and we ended up with about 15 people. It was really nice.

Darren and Suzie, Simon and Sarah, Mary Fran, Mona, Tony, Glenda, Tom and Val and their daughter Anya and a rotator called Brian from Wesley’s work. Plus of course Bogey – who loves the felucca rides. This was Aidan and Colin’s first felucca ride and the weather was perfect.

We spent a couple of hours on the felucca, stating out about 4pm and going right through to sunset. It was lovely. We sailed up and down the Nile stopping at an island for a toilet break and generally just taking in the relacing scenery.

Aidan, Colin and I fly out tonight for safari so we wrapped up the felucca about 6pm, went home, cleaned up and got picked up for the airport...
