Mom and I have been playing catch with a globe and wanted to research some of the places we find. Today it is Bawiti, Egypt.
If you’re holding a globe, Egypt is in the northeast corner of Africa, and in the middle, slightly northwest is Bawiti. Bawiti is by far the largest village in the Bahariya Oasis. Wikipedia says it’s the least technologically advanced oasis in the country. Bahariya Oaisis is home to the valley of the golden mummies.
An oasis is a place in a desert where there is enough water to sustain more plant life than you usually find in the desert.
