End of Day 9 ......hardly a cycling day as we only had to go 40km from Aswan
city to Aswan Dam to meet up with the ferry that will take us to Wadi Haifi
in Sudan. Interesting but tiring day, as we had to do a lot of baggage
loading and unloading, and emmigration procedures. Embarking the ferry has
been a very interesting experience...fortunately we are sharing in two
person cabins, away from the 2nd class communal sleeping area, or worse
still the open deck. The ferry is probaby a 50m long, 3 level ship, and has
every bit of space onboard it utilised. People and their luggage lying
around everywhere.
Arrive at Wadi Haifi around 11am tomorrow...and apparently immigration
procedures will occupy us for a lot of the rest of the day! So effectivley
a rest day with Sudan cycling beginning in earnest on wednesday!
