Egypt - Day 10 - Monday, August 10th

I was up early, despite the fact that the galabaya party wore me out! Let's get breakfast! Oh, Johnnnnnn! Take me to breakfast - I'm hungry! He didn't take me to breakfast with him. Again. That's not very nice! Come back here! FEED ME!

John came back after eating his breakfast (I could smell the eggs on his breath!) and took me outdoors. Hopefully they feed me later on! However, I was able to ignore my hunger by looking at all of the beautiful scenery along the banks of the Nile. It sure was lush! I was ready to spread my wings and fly over to a palm grove when we arrived at Edfu. Maybe I'll get a chance to get some food here.

We took a horse and buggy ride to a local temple. Our driver informed us that our horse was pregnant! I thought she was glowing! What, John? That glow was from the sweat on your forehead? Oh, sorry.

The temple at Edfu was officially called the Temple of Horus. I wonder if he's here. Well whaddya konw? He is here!



How you doing, Horus? Again with the silent treatment. Are you mad at me? I didn't do anything - I swear! Did you want me to do something? Is that what the problem is? Well, what do you want me to do? SPEAK TO ME!! Nothing came out of his mouth. It was like talking to a brick wall. FINE! See if I talk to you ever again! I walked closer to the temple. Hey Horus - Who are these people on the wall?



Again, nothing came out of this mouth. Man, he is stubborn!




I ignored Horus. Two can play this game! In fact, I decided that I would "Walk like an Egyptian".



It was very uncomfortable. John, let's get out of here! See ya, Horus! Again no sound. Well, I tried to be nice to you!



We went back to the boat and John promptly fell asleep in the room. I couldn't go anywhere because he locked me in his bag. Again. What if I wanted dinner? Well, apparently NOTHING was on the menu that night, because that's what I got for dinner. In fact, I had no idea what time it was until John opened up the bag. He got out his Twizzlers, Oreos and me and went upstairs to the TV Lounge. I smell POPCORN!!! Give me some!! I used my "I'm a sad, pathetic, unfed chicken" look on him; it didn't work, as he set me down and didn't feed me. HOW CRUEL! He did give an Oreo to Hani, our nice waiter/bartender/DJ/turban-maker. He loved it. Where's my Oreo? Shoot ... I'd even take a Twizzler. Instead, he made me sit there and watch "Death on the Nile" on the TV. I fell asleep before the first death. Wake me when it gets good ... or when you're going to FEED ME!!! Alas, I slept through the night.
