Today is Trish's birthday and to make it memorable, we went to see the
pyramids. Nancy and Trish have been there many times, but that was over
thirty years ago, and it was the first time for David and Curtis. Despite
reading about all the cautions in the tour books, we let ourselves be
hustled into carriage rides. But considering how hot and humid it is,
riding was not such a bad idea. It is pretty exciting to stand there and
take in these icons that we have seen only in photos our whole lives.
