We aboard from our air-conditioned van into the dusty heat of Giza. Our driver wants to bring us directly to the parking place. But for this he had to drive the other way around through a one-way street and two policemen do not permit this. It was senseless to refer to the width of the street on which a big bus could turn without any difficulty. But never mind. In spite of the heat the few meters are really not necessary after the long journey.

Before we watch the pyramids at close range we want to have am meal in the pyramid-restaurant. We are in luck and we get a place in the first row so that we have an excellent view on the Sphinx and the pyramids. The buffet has a big assortment so that everybody here should become full. Furthermore several ventilators keep away the flies. With other words: we can eat and sweat without any nuisance...

Finally we decamped to the Cheops-pyramid. She is not only the oldest one in Giza, peculiar the biggest pyramid of the world and the only wonder of the world which is still obtained. With the bus arrived, I was also amazed, why we do not abroad out of the car? The tour guide explained, that the lime stone were reduced closed by us, several lime stone have a weight of 2.5 tonne and the whole pyramid has a weight of circa 6,25 million tonne. After ten minutes he closed his report an asked, how much time we need for looking and photographing.

Back again outdoors, the heat says, why we heard this all in the bus. Sadly the heaven is and even last dirty and grey, so that no perfect pictures are possible. It did not surprised us, that the offered picture postcard truly are montages, by which the pyramids are only diverged and spliced on a blue heaven.
Thanks t the heat the visitors are only very short outdoors. The watchmen are more patient, chandler and beggars, who attend us the whole time with their hello whisper, in order to sell a bottle of water, or to photograph her dromeda for a small tip or only to get some money.
