TRANSLATE 6. At noon we go upriver the Nil to „Kom Ombo“. The classical egypt town Ombos, which name preserved in todays Kom Ombo, owes her development the strategic position: From here the river as well as the trade route were controllable whichwere comming from Nubien to the Nil-valley. The prime of Ombos dated indeed in the Ptolemäer area, when Ombos became a metropolis, the Ombites, and was equipped with Temples.

We go to "Assuan". A "Galabeja-Party" takes place on the ship after dinner. The Galabeja is the traditionally garb of the egypt mens, which still dressed in the rural regions western of the Nil today.
