Last evening I went out for dinner with the Canadian couple.  Our plan was to go to the Panorama roof top restaurant for a sunset over the Theban necropolis. Unfortunately, it was closed.  We decided to go to the Marsam.  It was exactly one year ago that I was there for lunch.  It is rich with history and an amazing experience.  There were, of course, several archeologists who were staying there.

Here is a copy and paste from their site.......very interesting.

Oops, seems that I am iPad challenged once again. But google Marsam hotel Luxor and click on the history tab.  The Marsam is the oldest rest house on the West Bank and what an interesting history.

It was dark by the time I took this photo of my dinner companions, unfortunately.
