This is the cruise boat that will take you into the "Walk o Fame"
The "cruise" boat is towed by a small boat, and the audiences would have to face in one direction while the celebrities will gradually appear in front of you... how convenient!
Osiris, famous for his revival by his wife after he was murdered by his brother and torn into many many pieces. After revival, he was the god of the dead and underworld.
Isis, the wife of Osiris and mother of Horus. She was the one who collected all the pieces of his husband and revived him from his death. The Philae Island temple in Aswan was dedicated to her.

Akhenaten, first known as Amenhotep IV, was famous of attempting to compel the Egyptian population to monotheistically worship the god Aten. After his death, his son Tutankhamun reverted everything back to normal.
Ramses II, also known as Ramses the Great. He is famous for all the leftovers around in Egypt like Abu Simbel, Ramesseum, the temples in Luxor, etc. He ruled his throne for over 66 years and died at the age of 90+, with over 110 children.
"The four Bouncers of a night club!" For those who have seen the REAL temple, this replica of the famous temple of Abu Simbel is really a joke! But at least it shows us 4 complete figures instead of 3 and a half in the real thing.
Scene of how Moses was found and picked up by the Pharaoh's daughter in the River Nile. In the centre was the small craft of bulrushes coated in pitch that Moses once was in.
