The TIME MACHINE (ex Mahasen, understood to have been built in 1906) no longer offers the long run to Aswan and is now based in Cairo, tied up for much of the time as a Chinese Restaurant named "NILE PEKING", but offering regular dinner cruises. She appears to be heavily rebuilt, with large ports replacing her cabin windows and with two Chinese-style buildings featuring red tiled roofs on her upper deck. |
