Crystal Barista Little Rock Adventures
We were able to visit to Cairo, learn about the Egyptian Red Granite, and Basalt Mines
It is incredible to note how far the mines for the great pyrmaids and sphinx were from the monuments themselves.
Crystal Barista in Luxor Egypt
Luxor Temple, Hurghada
Always on the go, The Crystal Barista breezes through the Temple of Luxor, spends a night at Hurghada, and visits a historic Coptic Orthodox monastery, before winding up in Alexandria to prepare for an underground descent into the past.
Did you know? Alabaster which is the Egyptian name for the Calcium Carbonate mineral mined near the Valley of the Kings on the West Bank of the Nile River in Luxor, Egypt. Alabaster is a term used for a variety of stones from Egypt as the name comes from the term “A-Labaste” which refers to canopic jars made from Calcite that had effigies of the Egyptian Goddess Bast dating back more than 4,000 years.
