Pyramids of Giza!

Among everything that has been said or writen about the Pyramids,ONLY seeing is believing!
I was very amazed of how well built the Pyramids are and how it could stand through time.
I first have visited it with an American couple that we(my husband and I)have met the day before.And although it was winter,but being there under the sun was not cold at all.
This picture was taken on a rainy day in Cairo...we (my cousins and I decided to go to the pyramids)and on our way there it started to rain...but when we got to the site...it was beautiful sunny day!

For more pictures

Check my Pyramids travel album for more pictures of the pyramids.

Warning - camels can take off without warning. Mine did and threw me off. All of a sudden, he was off and running! I fell onto the sand, wrenching my shoulder and back. It's a week now, and I'm still on painkillers!
