  Wile reading the hieroglyphs a hand on the shoulder of Sir Herman, a mysterious man from the desert:

  “I have something for you from Arwa, the almeh.”

  The ancient relic is given back.

 

  Dessert Buffet

 

  Sir Herman and Dhul Fiqar are so happy for getting back the precious artefact, that in the late afternoon, when back on the Queen of the Nile, they decide to visit the dessert buffet.

  Guess the special secret ingredients of the cakes they decide to taste.

  Persian half moon biscuits

 

  The secret ingredient is a special flower, but not from cereals.

  Egyptian apple cake

 

  The secret ingredient is used also for making soaps and cosmetics.

  Prince Alì’s Turban

  The secret ingredient is a berry.

  Granada Chocolate Cake

  The secret ingredient of this cake gives an

  exotic taste to dishes.

  The evening on the Queen of the Nile ends in a very pleasant way, because just after supper the captain announces to the passengers, that the most famous belly dancer of Egypt will give a show of her art for them.

  To their surprise Sir Herman and the ambassador find out .....

  it’s Arwa !!!

 

  Not only Sir Herman and the ambassador are surprised in seeing Arwa,

  another English gentleman is very surprised too, but not for the same reason of the two gentlemen. Something a little more personal.

  In this case, we agree on the fact, that there is no better person then Shakespeare to make clear his feelings.

  Complete this phrase of king Lear and you will understand:

  “ Do not laugh at me; for as I am a ......

  I think this ........ to be my ..... “

  The great African river rolls the Queen of the Nile back to Cairo and with it, its passengers towards new adventures, that only the sky for now knows.
