Cairo - The Pyramids

"I can’t begin to describe what it was like wandering around the pyramids,
touching them and going inside one"

The Pyramid of Mycerinus

"We jumped back on the bus and headed off to the third pyramid
We could go inside the baby one and of course I did
I don’t expect to be back in Egypt anytime soon so I did all of the optional extras
It was small and tight fitting - you wouldn’t want to be claustrophobic!
It smelt really bad - like sweat and bottoms and feet
I am glad I went in it though"

"We hadn’t realised how hot it was when we were in there
until we came out and the 40 degree Egyptian day felt cool!"
