> Welcome to the Lotus, the paddle steamer on which we
> shall cruise the mysterious, exotic Nile. It is the
> perfect manner for a famous British heiress and her
> handsome new husband to spend their honeymoon, an
> upper-crust lady to obtain some fresh air and
> relaxation, and an Eastern Bloc doctor to take the
> trip he has dreamed of for a lifetime, but was always
> too poor to make. Egypt is the ideal place for a young
> Communist to study the ways of the workers, and it
> provides a fitting backdrop for a jilted lover's
> Cleopatra-like passion.  Gazing at brilliant sunsets,
> a Canon can dream of a brighter England, where the
> poor don't suffer and the rich are taken down a notch
> or two. Where better could a sheltered, naive
> secretary get her first taste of adventure than
> surrounded by the hawking of persistent Beadsellers, a
> Punjab-like Steward, and the moonlit shadows of
> ancient pyramidal tombs? Very soon, we shall set sail.
