First i must mention that the cough has subsided and has slowly moved into the sinus area. This makes matters worse cause now i can't breath =( But despite my poor health. i was determined to see the pyramids and make the most of this trip.
I hired a taxi for the afternoon to take me there. I'm not sure how it happened but somehow i got talked into renting a horse and riding around the pyramids. I was nervous about being on a horse that i really didnt enjoy the pyramids. Matter of fact all that i could think about was getting off the horse. The whole trip lasted about 3 hours and towards the end i was getting the hang of stirring a horse. Its alot harder then it looks and sounds. I think i might go back but not on a horse. As for camels, those beast are the nasties things ever.
thats really all to report. i think i need more medication and a nap. i met this girl and together we are going to see this light and sound show at the pyramids later tonight. she is south african but has been all over including san francisco.
another thing that keeps coming up in conversation is the term walk like an Egyptian. This guy was showing me how to walk across the street and navigate around cars. He said, "follow me and walk like an Egyptian." He then squared his back and lowered his hips and started walking. The encounter and demontration was something straight out of a saturday night live skit. There was no crazy arm movements but it was very similar to what we know as to walk like an egpytian
alright, im out.
