Preparing Bahteem site included a first flooding of the fields...

...and endless discussions... (never found out about what)

 

Students doing maintenance

The surrounding of Bahteem station was a poor, dirty suburban settlement

 

10th of Ramadan station we saw mainly when it was dark as it was our last station for maintenance. And due to famous traffic jam.... we were happy to arrive at least!

Thermography of Giza Pyramid and Sphinx

 

And soon it was time to say goodbye: Our boxes waiting for beeing collected.
