We're starting our plans for the next trip. We will probably work with Memphis again - we had such good luck before.

I'm curious about logistics.

I'd like to spend more time in the Saqqara complex -Bent Pyramid, Red Pyramid, etc. Would that be something to devote an entire day to?

We'd have a few days in Luxor, seeing sites we have yet to visit. To the north is Dendara and Abydos. Those sites, taken together would make for a very long day. Would a room in Qena or someplace around there be adviseable?

Other things -where we were there in April we both came down with The Bug. With time and local remedies we survived, but I'm wondering if having been through it once, will a second visit be as perilious health-wise?
