As we’re in the final stage of our Egyptian travels, a look back at how people would have traveled in times past. Nowadays, we jet around the world, cruising in comfort whether in the air or on the river. We can still imagine that the pace might have been a bit different in previous centuries.
Here’s a taste of what it might have been…
These camels were just happily grazing near the banana plants, foraging on all the tidbits that interest them. It would have been a very different experience for us, if we’d traveled by camel. I wonder if the slower pace would allow us more time to breathe in the culture, landscape and antiquities.
This trip to Egypt was nothing short of amazing, exceeding all our expectations. The only thing that could make it better is to have even more time to appreciate all we saw, all the people we met… Maybe next time?
