Remember that I stayed in a hotel with bugs that "ate" my legs. It was once a vey elegant hotel, you know the type of place that could have been in an Agatha Christie novel. But when I was there with a friend it had seen it's best days.
And in Cairo we went to see the pyramids in Giza and Saqqara. And when we went to the three famous one's in Gize, my 3 friends wanted to mount the pyramid. Crazy idea I know, but I just did not want to say at the bottom of the big tomb, all alone for more than 3 hours that it took to climb up and down. Remember this was in the 70's, tourists where not common at all in the streets in Cairo, or even at the pyramids.
So we hires a guide, it was REALLY expensive, but neccesary, to climb up. It toook 1 h up and even more to go down, and I suffer from vertigo.
Here you can se us, on top of the pyramid. The view was fantastic!
