After leaving Tel Amarna, we might stop in Minia to visit the farm Ahmed Nagy's father to see how the crops are doing. Then we would collect back up on the cruise ship and head up river to Abydos. Probably one of the more famous temples in Egypt because of the alien conspiracy theories about how the temple came to have sculptures of a helicopter, blimp, submarine and even a jet airplane.But it is also one of the oldest sites where it is believed that Osirus was buried, so when you go in the temple to see the alien scupltures make sure you go around back to see the REALLY old (pyramid age) ruins behind the more modern (18th-19th Dynasty) temple
