The Egyptian Nile

Posted by Ashley on June 4, 2013 at 4:09am

The ancient Egyptian culture is perhaps one of the most fascinating of all time. The pharoahs along with their elaborate lifestyles have given a treasure trove of information to us. I have travelled around the world and enjoyed learning about many civilizations, Egypt by far is my favorite. It's almost an obsession. I find myself thinking about the undiscovered tombs, temples and the everyday life that hasn't changed much for the last 5000 years. The Egyptian have a saying, "Once you drink from the River Nile, you will always return." It seems to be true in my case.

    I would love to take a Nile Cruise! I watch just about every program on TV about Egypt. Truly fascinating!

    I've read about this story. I don't think the Ethiopians will get away with damming the Nile. A political time-bomb.

    Let's hope there will be a Nile in Egypt to drink from!

    The Ethiopians are building a dam on the Nile that would have major consequences in Egypt. I wonder how this will play out.

    I'd like to drink from the Nile and live the experience! Sounds cool to me!

    I drank from the Nile, and I keep going back! I love it there. Anyone who wants to go-let me know!
