So after some nice slow time in our room, we wandered about the Hilton checking out its amenities. This it appears is a very popular place to come and have your wedding photos taken.
This evening we left the hotel and went to the Nile river and met a river boat for a dinner cruise and show. The traffic in this city continues to be crazy, with no one staying in their lanes.
Showing below is our Nexus guide Robert and Egyptian guide, Hassan.
Dinner was a buffet affair, with lots of Egyptian favorites. We accompanied this with a glass of Egyptian Chardonnay shown below. It was seven dollars American a glass and not great.
Once the river boat that we were dining on set sail it was clear that we were not the only party boat on the river. There were hosts of extremely brightly lit boats with lots of parties going on onboard.
The cultural show was in two parts - First a belly dancer who really shook the place up; then a whirling dervish who must have spun for close to 15 minutes nonstop.
It was a great end to a very long first day.
