While there, we had reserved a room at the Movenpick on Elephantine Island , an island planted in the Nile, a beautiful island with its two small Nubian villages and yet very little tourism around wich keeps them still quite authentic. We could view the first village from the pool side of that luxury hotel where we would spend a night. Two juxtaposed worlds that have nothing to do with each other, which does not even live in the same century. The hotel pool empties almost into the Nile (optical effect!). Unfortunately the cold north wind blowing from the desert was so strong that neither one nor the other would dare to put the bathing suit. The room view was superb and I had a great time watching the ballet of feluccas who spun on the huge river. At evening we did marvel to see the city illuminated from the top of the hotel's tower which stood quite inharmonious actually in the middleof the building. But the very top floor holds a but has a panoramic bar and restaurant with stonning views of the left bank
Je voudrais prendre le temps de voir, d'entendre et d'être pour faire la preuve que la foi attire toute sorte de miracles.
