Ok, Mom and Dad gave me the word, go take photos of the Pyramids, we are waiting...
Maybe there is a window that allows us to look back in time.
The Sphinx
There is a gate or fence that keeps a person from the best photo locations of the Sphinx and I got in trouble once for climbing.
This is Charlie Brown the Camel, for 20 pounds you must take a ride I have decided or fight with the driver all day, I gave up finally, this is about 5 dollars U.S., and my Camel Driver was nice.
I asked, will it bite, I was trying to get close enough.
My camel driver.
Camels, Donkeys, and Carts are available.
I think this is about twice as tall as Tikal in Guatemala, however the Mayans would also build on the top of a mountain, for sure this is wonder of the world.
This is the size of the stones.
Camel Caravan, actually it the drivers taking many Camels back to the barns.
Very large stones, this is directly in front of the Sphinx.
This is fight, a very big argument, my driver says this is over money or how both the Pyramid Guard and the Boys are wanting money. For sure you may as well pay for a tour, or ride a Camel or you life will be very difficult.
These are some great pictures! I especially like this one.

When did you go? We went in September and there was scaffolding around the Sphinx. I wish I could have taken photos of it without the scaffolding. Check out our Egypt photos

Congrats Andy for creating such a wonderful world on internet. I was doing some research on Egypt when I came across your website. The Pyramids look just fascinating. I wanted to travel to Egypt in July to attend an event with some of the most influential chefs from around the world. Chef Vikas Khanna is organzing this "The Living Pyramids" which is also considered as the world's greatest food event. Khanna is a chef and this is just a tip of his resume. What a way to think, tis is a series of chefs events, here is the linkhttp://www.worldofchefs.org
