I have never seen the Nile as low as this before

the nile receded 1ft in the night leaving many boats  stranded on the bottom.

The garbage boat men having a brew these men actually sleep on the garbage boats 

there are 6 of these boats here.

Shells and shell fish  stranded  on the banks of the receding Nile

balloons that try and land in the wet lands.

its safe to land on the path

the cattle and buffalo,s are scared  and I could not get near them to calm them down.

 they were ready to charge anyone  that came off the balloons

the receding nile also leaves its rubbish on the waterline.
