It was a very low-key day today. We didn't do much except hang around. The garden here is a great little area. Jay feeds the birds and so there is always cheerful chriping. Today the good weather continued although it may have only reached 24C in the afternoon.
I did check on the Egyptian National Railways website to see about taking a short trip to the city of Qena. It's only about 80 kilometer north of here. We saw a bit of it from the bus windows when going to Hurghada in December. The trains take about 65 minutes to go between the cities. We can jump on the 9:30 AM and return on the 5:10 PM trains. Perhaps we could take in the Dendera Temple and have a nice lunch in town as well. This type of planning comprised the hardest part of my afternoon. So the outside offered a welcomed place to spend the day.
On a day back at home, I'd be confined to a smaller area. I do love our apartment balcony and spend a lot of time on it when in British Columbia. At this time of year; though, it would likely look like this old photo.
