Overheat of Luxor

Our Felucca didn't take us all the way to Luxor, instead it dropped us off somewhere on the way. We got off and took a "TukTuk" to a nearby town. From there we got on a superb crowded mini bus to Kom Ombo and Edfu for temples. Fares to get into these temples are not cheap at all. They are pretty much priced at slight higher than American standard. Afterwards the bus dropped us off at Luxor.
Two things can totally override the charm of Luxor's antiquities: heat and the hustlers.
The first night at Luxor, we made a dirty underground deal with the hotel manager: we bought 3 Stella beers from him. Alcohol is not quite easy to be found in this Muslim country. As a condition we can only consume the beer in our room. Later that night we went up to the roof to watch a local wedding being held by swimming pool in a hotel cross the street. There were always weddings going on while I stayed in Egypt. Brides are covered with hair dresses and tight and thick white gowns. They are sweating and hoping to get over the boring ceremony and start their own fun private party soon where they can wear their skimpy dresses.
Valley of the Kings is the highlight of Luxor.The tombs were designed to resemble the underworlds; a long, inclined, rock-hewn corridor descends into either an antechamber or a series of halls and ends in a burial chamber. Vivid artwork can be found on any walls taking you to then everyday life. I visited three tombs in Valley of the Kings (out of over 60 that have been excavated here). It was the hottest day ever I had in my life.
I was left alone as the other two travel friends left early to catch their buses to their next destinations. I had several hours to kill before catching my train back to Cairo. I decided to enjoy myself by the Nile for a spectacular sunset. The walk board by the Nile in Luxor is a dangerous place where touts, stalkers and criminals work their way to make off deals with tourists. My last moment in Luxor turned out to be an aggravation. Not all the tourists feel the same way, I guess, as sex solicitation is a common practice and it seems to go very well here.
