Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: April 1967

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.

"The Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut is located beneath the cliffs at Deir el Bahari on the west bank of the Nile near the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. Designed by the architect Senemut, the mortuary temple is dedicated to the sun god Amon-Ra." From Wikipedia. This is a scan of a print from a slide, taken in 1967, when we were lucky enough to be able to stop off at several places en route from Qatar to England. Location on my map is approximate. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortuary_Temple_of_Hatshepsut

A scan of another print from a colour slide, taken way back in 1967, when we were able to spend just a few days in Egypt on our way from Doha, Qatar, back to England before going to live in Holland for a few months.
