Thanks!!

(1) Always cautious; but, not overboard

(2) have not booked yet. Will take the sleeper train and debating whether to book via the reservation form online or let hotel conierge take care of it (price & convenience).

(3) I will look up Thomas Cook and also inquire with Hotel. I really want a non-nonsense, no waste of time experience. I would prefer a guide and Egyptologist to be sure we experience the most in such a shoryt time.

(4) Thanks for the Luxor tips

(5) I know somethings may fall off as time runs out; but, will be thrilled with what we can see and enjoy. Besides, Ambition is my middle name!

My motto is - I may be insane to do ________________ (fill in the blank) in just _______ days (another blank); but, it is ________ days more than none at all !!

By the way, have booked the Hyatt. Big change from the Luna
