	Egypt: Of Pharaohs and Fables - November 6, 2007 Narrated in Person by Sandy Mortimer
	Sandy Mortimer		The meeting of a robed horseman leading his camels across the desert sand, framed by the great pyramids of Giza brings a voice from the past ... and the beginning into 5,000 years of human history. In Cairo we will visit the Egyptian Museum, see life on the streets, and explore old Cairo with it's many markets. Explore the city of Luxor and visit an "antique" photographer. Visit Aswan High Dam to get a view of Lake Nassar, the world's largest man-made lake. Celebrate a Muslim wedding celebration, then return full circle to the great Giza pyramids, the slowly setting sun, and the desert.
			From Cairo with its markets, museums and historical places, to exploring tombs, temples and the people throughout this country, this video will hold your attention. Abu Simbal, Aswan, Luxor, Karnak, Alexandria, the Sinai Peninsula and oases are just part of the tour. Meet the Nubians, Bedouins, Copts and many others who make up the remarkable Egyptian culture.
