Soaring in the early morning with a hot air balloon over the valley of the kings in Luxor. Looking around we were not the only balloon in the sky over the Nile valley. We were with a total of four balloons.

Magnificent view, I can just imagine the feeling, the smell of the air, the sense of elation and freedom.
I always imagine Egypt as being desert, but then the Nile Valley is of course very fertile, I should have guessed!
Thanks for sharing

Hi Hans
I can see that you like to fly by balloons. You must travel to Turkey to Kapadocji. There only there are views. (translator)
