Inviting

Don't wade across.

They look like islands.
Of course that's what they are now, but they were once the tops of hills, mountains almost.
The waters of Lake Nasser  reach very close to the tops. Many hills contained archeological sites. Some got moved, others flooded.

What an INVITING situation. I could spend many hours just walking around on them.

Tabor, they seem like peaceful places.

Very pretty. It does look like you should be able to wade across to the next one...

I think I would like to snorkel or scuba in there. Wonder what under the water would be like?

Looks like a peaceful place.

Amazing!

Bag Lady, it's almost compelling.

Some of those underwater sites would be amazing to find, Dawn.

Yup, Bossy Betty. It is.

Looks like a beautiful area.

Just beautiful. Almost makes me want to learn to scuba dive ;)

Hilary and Reb, it is. I could park myself on one of those islands and be quite content.
