explained the Pyramids +
Sphinx and then we went
down to visit the tombs built
of long blocks of granite – so huge
that it was almost unthinkiable
that they had been brought
a long distance to that place –
The floors were of huge blocks of
alabaster – unpolished of course.
After we remounted our camels
we ere photographed and
started on our return trip
to the place where we had mounted
them first. Riding in all 1 1/2 miles.
An interesting ??? shop was
near by – and we spent some time
there – making a few purchases.
returning to our hotel – we
walked to a few shops nearby
Then rested and dressed for
dinner, at 7.30 P.M.
Retired very early as we were
literally worn out.
