One of the great things about a digital camera is that you can immediately see the pictures you've taken. These kids loved it!
Dinner!
Right outside the Farafra Oasis is a natural spring--we drove there to swim and eat lunch
The cement on the side was searing hot from the sun, so as soon as I took my shoes off I jumped right in. What I didn't realize was that this was a HOT spring! Instead of cooling me down from the oppressive mid-day desert heat, it only amplified it!
Drying off took all of 20 seconds
Lunch is served!
