Egypt day 3! PYRAMIDS!!

Giza Pyramids

Panoramic View of the Pyramids

Sphinx Tour

Papyrus Factory

Sawwara (Mastaba and Zoser Complex..these are the step pyramids)

Memphis

Off to the Cairo International Airport! Fly to LUXOR!!

 

We got to climb inside the GREAT PYRMID!! It was INCREDIBLE!! They only let 150 people in, and our group was 90 or 95…so needless to say we got there early to manage that one!! AWESOME! We sang inside the room of the tomb too, it was awesome. (oh and you have to basically crouch down at a 90 degree angle to climb inside… I’m so glad I’m short for that one!!
