The Pyramids of Giza
OUtside the amazing Egyptian museum where there are amazing artefacts jam packed! Heaps of mummies and a shady guy acting as a tour guide. Watch out for that. All the jewels of tuenkahmen and the crazy tombs. Massive place! And all that is not here - you can see in the British Museum - hillarious! Or sometimes france cos some itallian dude gifted a few of his discoveries : )
Down the back streets of the bazaar - the deeper the darker but less haggling so it was nice.
It is crazy to be driving along the crazy roads of Egypt and see htese massive pyramids in the distance. THey are on the horizon of various views around Cairo. ALthoug there was a bit of 'they are not as big as i thought they were' syndrome - as per Stonehenge. they were definitely very amazing to stand next to and sit on.
Some of the tour group taking a never again photo op.
The camels were very pretty looking but the leering men on top made the idea of a trip around the pyramids - none too appealing.
