Treasuring a first-day-of-spring sunrise over the Temple of the Oracle in Siwa, Egypt.
The Idiot watched the first sunrise of spring from the site of an ancient viewing window at Timasirayn Temple twelve kilometers west of Siwa. He had a session with the Oracle of Amun in Siwa at noon today and will return to Timasirayn Temple tomorrow morning for the spring equinox sunrise before their second rendezvous.
