Sphinx
Leo the LION Arrived safely. The taxi ride from Cairo airport to our hotel was hard to describe and not for the faint of heart. Our tour van driver today told us that Cairene drivers need three things; good brakes, good luck and a strong heart! Arrow lines show the general line of traffic flow but lane dividers are purely for decoration.
Today we visited the pyramids of Giza, Dahshur, Memphis and Saqqara - a full day but very interesting and I realized that I still need much more practice with reading hieroglyphs.
We heard that it only rains once in every seven years in Cairo so we moved our raincoats to the bottom of our bags.
