I cannot tell you too much about Aswan other than it is one of Egypt’s southern most cities and its life is built around the Nile. We arrived here from Luxor Thursday of last week – the 31st March. Our first stop was the Sudanese Embassy. We were full of hope that the permission from Khartoum was faxed to Aswan as was told to us, but there was no fax. This was the beginning of such an up and down ride for us.
Willie called “our man” in Khartoum (“our man and the information he had was that the permission was granted and faxed!) Since the embassy was closing and it was Muslim weekend, there was not too much more that we could do before Sunday.
