The only surviving wonder of the ancient world is less than 20km from our flat here in Cairo. And we lived here for over three months without paying the pyramids a visit.
Here's Milli looking for the public bus we took to get there. It didn't stop, so we ran across 4 lanes of traffic, knocked on the door, and hopped on.
Isn't globalization great?
The Sphinx looms large in the public mystic, but is rather small in person.
You can count a few of the 2 million blocks.

Finally you saw one of the Wonders of the World! Great pictures!
But you really should go to Sakkara to see some marvelous pyramids and tombs without all the carnival atmosphere and Pizza Hut. The desert down there is really lovely.
Ahhhh those pictures are sooo cool!! I can't wait to see it for myself. Where there lots of tourists all around?
