The lesson learned from this days'events is "Do not walk in socks on a slick boat deck."
I slipped and fell on the felucca. I don't remember some of the details of what took place so you'll need to read Lei's posting to fill in the gaps.

Day 5. Started out as expected.
The description of the itinerary for Day 5, reads "Morning we meet the felucca for a relaxing day of sailing on the Nile". We were to spend the night on the felucca - sleeping in the open, under the stars. Per Daniel's instructions, we all packed our daypacks accordingly - lots of warm clothing, flashlight, and of course, sleeping bag.

Downtime in Aswan.
It was sometime after noon when we arrived back to Aswan after spending the morning touring Abu Simbel and Philae.
The Temples at Abu Simbel and Philae.
Day 3 in Aswan began with Lei's alarm clock going off at 2:30a . No chance of hearing the daily call of prayer as we had to have an early wake up in order to meet up with the group (except for Daniel) at 3:30a.
