PIctures in order:
Great Pyramids of Khufu and Sphinx
King Khufu's Pyramid from the 4th Pharonic Dynasty (2558-2532 BC)
This boat was used to ship the blocks for the pyramids from Luxor to Cairo. It was found buried near to the pyramids and is truly a feat of engineering considering how ancient it is and that each block weighs 2.5 tonnes each. Also, Mohamed Elmaandi, the guy in the picture, matched me to the internship here... and yes he is a crazy as he looks!

Sarah - maybe the third time is a charm. I did not do the google account thing correctly so it would not let me post my commnents. Chuck and I really really look forward to hearing from you and looking at the great pictures. What a wonderful adventure! It truly is hard to believe that the boat could carry so much weight. Love you - GP
