Hypostyle, Karnak, Egypt, 10 April 1967
This is an old photo, printed from a slide and now being scanned from that print. 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). Lol, by the time we finally reached England, we felt that we never ever wanted to see ruins and columns again, anywhere.
Our time in Luxor and at the Valley of the Kings was just magical, and with far fewer tourists back then than nowadays. As I wrote in a reply to Art below, that's ME standing there - for years, I thought it was a local Egyptian in my photo, but this evening, when I had zoomed in to remove endless tiny white flecks, I realized who it was, lol. Oops- I guess it wasn't me who took this photo, then!
