We have another very interesting visit to a village along the Nile. The village of Daraw is the home of a weekly camel market. We got to experience the auctioning of the camels to the highest bidder. The camels are exported from Sudan. There are three reasons people want to buy camels. 1. For the meat, 2. To help carry loads on the agricultural land and 3. Tourism.
After observing the camel auction we walked through the market area of the village.
We ended the afternoon watching the older Agatha Christie movie, “Death on the Nile” which was filmed at the Old Cararact Hotel in Aswan. Tomorrow we leave our boat at Aswan and check into that hotel!

How fun that you saw the movie too! The camels are really cute. I didn’t realize they used them for meat too. Bummers! Camels do have Attitudes! I actually rode Laurence of Florence at the Oregon Coast one year! But, I’m sure your experience would top that! Pictures are great!
