I have to go wake up my sister Lola, (again) but this time it's important. "LOLA! Wake up come on it's time to go travel ancient Egypt."
"Fine, gosh, I'll get up" She yelled back at me. I think I'm getting tired of this.
Today once we turn on the ignition of our hot pink Bentley we'll go back in time to explore the Nile River in Egypt. Lola made me a great lunch of sandwiches and cookies and then her phone started to ring and it was my mom, so sadly I picked it up and hang up on her. Then we got in the car and started to telleport... Suddenly I awoke from the car and my face was covered with whipped cream becasue I itched my face. "Lola come on really" I told my prankster sister. After we were shaken and rattled we were there, EGYPT. "So you remember all the geographical features of the Nile river and why the Egyptians settled there right, right?" I told Lola as she stared off into space while holding the map. Then slowly as I snapped in her face she said... "YA!, of course I remember" We were heading towards Ramses II Temple.
I think the Egyptians settled there because it was a good source of water and when it flooded almost every year the water made the soil good for growing crops. The Nile River had a lot of surrounding deserts so it was a good source of protection from enimies.
Then we went on a Falucca ride and I could hear the rushing water which was pretty cool. I can see the river and it's bends as we float down the river. once we get off the Falucca, Lola and I visited a local tribe who gave us a sample of their food and it was delicious! then We visited the Great pyramid in Giza and I felt the rock which was amazing to feel the hard work that the Egyptian put into it. I think I'm starting to like Time Traveling, no I love it.
Ha! Your sister put whipped cream on your face. Glad you got to explore the river up close, it sounds amazing!
