Quick Day Trip to Sakkara and Dashur
So, with Sai, his cousin Pak, Mike and Leah we went off for a day trip to some sights in around Cairo.
To start, we hit Memphis, the oldest capital of Egypt. There was not that much to see here other then the gigantic Ramses statue.
Then we were off to the great pyramid at Sakkara. One of the earliest pyramids dedicated to Snefru and co.
Then a quick drive over to the Black, Red and Bent Pyramid. The Red Pyramid we could actually enter. After a hard walk up the side of the pyramid, all but the closterphobic Haley descended into the Pyramid. A 3 x 3 tunnel, 45 degress down for 150 feet. Was tough on the legs going in. After the tunnel ended, a giant perfectly formed Triangle inside the pyramid. Followed by 3 more tunnels and three more giganticly formed triangles inside. The air was very acidic, and I quickly had to get out. The walk back up the tunnel was by far the most physical thing i have had to do in a very long time.
Everyones thighs were sore for 4 days afterword, and we could all barely walk up or down stairs lol.
