Dave & Carol Brady of York sent in this picture from a 10-day trip to Egypt they took earlier this month with seven other York County residents. They toured ancient pyramids and tombs in the Valley of the Kings and Queens, as well as more modern marvels such as the Aswan Dam.
The trip, sponsored by the Smithsonian, also included a four-day excursion on the Nile River from Luxor to Aswan.
In this photo, eight members of the group stand on the deck of the MV Mirage: (from left) Dave Brady, Judy Skouras,Pat Kurz, Sally Thompson, Carol Brady, Beth Updegrove, Tamara & Ben Leas.
Their travel tip: Temperatures in Egypt in early March were in the 80s and 90s...but high winds stirred up lots of sand and dust. Sunscreen and moist towelettes are a must!
