Every tourist cruising the Nile has seen this, but we did not know and it was a surprise. These merchants in row boats flock the ships that are waiting for entering the locks in Esna (between Luxor and Aswan). They offer souvenirs, towels, T-shirts etc. to tourists all the way on the upper deck. They sell to tourists by throwing what you want in a plastic bag to the upper deck. Money travels the reverse way. We purchased beach towels.
Improved contrast and color. Sharpened and cropped. Stamped out the back (not the right marine term) of a cruise boat on the right. |

Bonsoir Alain,
Une vue intéressante qui permet de bien s'imaginer la façon dont se passe une croisière sur le nil. Une bonne image, merci de nous la faire partager.
