After a long over night train ride ride from the North of Egypt to the South, we arrived in Luxor at about 7am. We walked to our luxury hotel and checked in. We took a much needed shower (to wash off the grim of the overnight train and the walk through Cairo garbage city the day before. After wards we headed out to explore Luxor.... and it was not what we expected at all!! #egypt #travelvlog #travelegypt  
We arrived in Luxor at around 8:30 am on the Luxury Overnight train from Cairo (see the previous post about that trip). We then walked to our hotel from the train station, which took about half an hour. The touts and taxi drivers in Luxor are intense, and nothing like the ones in Cairo. We arrived at the hotel, but our room wasn’t ready. We had paid for the night before so that we could check in early, but the hotel staff we spoke to at the desk didn’t understand that, even though the staff I had emailed said it would be no problem. We sat in the lobby for an hour as the lady at the desk checked us in, looking confused and calling a lot of people to confer. We were then shown to our room, and it was well worth the wait. There was a balcony overlooking the resort and the Nile River.
We had showers to clean off all the gross from the train the night before, and our trek through  Garbage City the day before. I had never felt so disgusting before. After resting for a short while, we set out to explore Luxor and Karnak Tem
