This is an old photo, printed from a slide and now being scanned from that print - so not exactly the best quality, ha. It was taken back in 1967, when we lived in Doha, Qatar for about six months. When we left there, to return to England before going to live in Holland for a few months, we were able to stop off en route at a few places for between 2 and 5 days, including Beirut (4 days), Jerusalem (4 days), Cairo (2 days), along the River Nile to Luxor (5 days), Athens (4 days), Rome (2 days) and Paris (2 days). Egypt has been in my mind recently, of course, and I thought I would add this photo to my Middle East set. I haven't watched any News the last few days, so I'm not sure how things have progressed/changed in the last little while.
