Here is just a quick update on yesterday's post. I mentioned that our personal guard was carrying a machine gun, we'll here's the pic. (Click on it to get a better view.) We were visiting the Niuserre Sun Temple at Abu Gurab, a rarely visited site, when it was taken. He was a great guy and even helped us bargain at the bizarre. Needless to say, I think we got some good bargains.

Dear travelwhippet,
Pls don't post this comment but email me at travel.wonders (at) yahoo.com. I am the author of Travel Wonders of the World (you left a comment on Egypt recently)and I'd like to start an email conversation re some of your archeological wonders.

That is one scary looking bodyguard! I suppose you felt very safe with him around. :)
I haven't been to Egypt yet, but I would love to. Seeing the pyramids is on my dream list. For now, I suppose I can enjoy Egypt vicariously through you.
