Step #1: and the Sphinx


I nearly forgot. Downhill from the pyramids lies the Sphinx.
This one was a bigger disappointment. It is really small (blame Obelix for giving me the wrong scale). I was expecting this giant imposing Sphinx only to find a somewhat big Sphinx. What can I say when reality meets fiction, it does not always match. See the pictures here.
Never the less, a group of tourists from Sri Lanka wanted absolutely to take a picture with me (like in the days in China) and in exchange they offered to take pictures of me with the Sphinx. Not always the best shot (more like the typical tourist one) and not always the best eye either, but was really funny. Laugh with me :)
