A sky show in which about 30 UFOs "jump" for 1 hour over the Nile river in Aswan, Egypt. 

I and two others witnessed a round hour-long "sky show" of round bright objects overhead. We were on the top deck of a boat on the Nile river in Aswan, Egypt.

We were on tour to see comet Haley leave Earth that day. It was too foggy to see the comet, so we watched the clear sky overhead. Lights began to appear and move with great speed in all directions and corners. We counted at least 30 or more. 

It was like a game, since there was no pattern in the moves. They rode around each other. It lasted 1 hour. Shortly before dawn, at about 5 a.m., one ship broke away and raced towards us at great speed. It flew over our heads and very quickly disappeared into the dawn sky. 

As we approached, he showed us a well-defined round flat disk. It was like celebrating the last time a comet was observed from Earth. It was amazing. 

The observers were the tour Manager, I, a nurse, and another nurse. I've seen other similar UFO images, but I've never seen the disk so clearly or so low. It looked brownish in the dim light of dawn. He was moving too fast to see any other details.

We were with a tour to see the event of Haley’s comet leaving earth that day. It was too hazy to see the comet,so we watched the clear sky overhead. Lights started to appear & move at great speed in all directions & angles. We counted at least 30 or more. It was like play, as there was no pattern to moves. They cavorted all around each other. This lasted 1 hour. Just before dawn,about 5 am, one craft broke away & swooped down towards us at great speed. It did a pass over our heads & disappeared into the dawn sky very fast. It showed us a definate round flat disc as it came close. It appeared like a celebration at the exact time of the comet’s last view from earth. It was awesome.

In the dim dawn light, it appeared kind of brownish colored. It moved too fast to see any other details.
