March 27th, 2006,
Day 81 of our cruise of 105
At sea after Alexandria and Cairo, Egypt

Day started at 5:30 am
The local police band was playing loudly outside our stateroom by 6am- good for us as we had to get up- some were not so pleased.
Convoy of many buses left shortly after 7 for the Pyramids- 3 hours away
Awesome
My favorite visual memories are of the very armed policemen on white camels stationed on the horizon, on the top of gigantic sand dunes almost encircling the site.
My second visual is Terry trying to climb down into the pyramid!
Home after 7pm, exhausted, we shopped on the dock for a few souvenirs and dined in our room with our favorite room service item on the menu: club sandwich. Asleep by sailaway at 10:00.
Balmy weather
Very pleasant
A very long12 hour bus trip
