Egypt, cruise over the Nile. Edfu

We just returned from a lovely week, cruising with a slow boat over the river Nile, in Egypt. We had a terrific holiday, and I had a lot of opportunity to make sketches in my hand made travel sketchbook. 

For starters this drawing of the bird towers of Edfu. The locals collect bird-dung in these towers, which they use to fertilize the fields.
