FEBRUARY - EGYPT *

Waiting for a camel at Giza, a plateau situated
on the south western outskirts of modern Cairo.
The pictures are hazy because Egypt is hot, dry & sunny.
If this is February, I can't imagine the summer heat!
These are the famous pyramids of Giza.
This pyramid appears larger than the Great Pyramid of Khufu
because it stands on a slight rise. It was built by Khufu's son Khafra.
There are about 110 pyramids currently known in Egypt.
