I am now more than ever fascinated as you guys are no doubt with Pyramids, especially since visiting Cairo and clambouring inside the pyramid of Khafre to the kings chamber past other sweaty tourists and a big Italian one in particular. The pyramids in Japan are however underwater which makes them even more intriguing! Enjoy!

Blacky it was, you mean the encounter with the big Italian woman coming bottom down first lol and claustraphobic to boot, I count myself lucky that I managed a trip over to Egypt, first up the Nile on a boat to see many temples, then flew up to Cairo and the Pyramids. Access to the Burial chamber is thru a tunnel iabout 4 foot high and meant walking doubled up for 15 minutes When we got to the kings burial chamber/ crypt some American guy was hidng in it and jumped out on his girlfriend, she screamed her head off! It was dark hot and an awesome experience.
Look forward to your Flooded Kingdoms posting at this hive of activity.

post the pics if you have some aardvaaks that would be cool!!! Well with a request like that thanks, I will aim to start a thread on hieroglyphs and other pics of temples and the pyramids when I was over there. Of course I need to zip the sizes down a bit to post but will do that soon. I have done one already with a post by BrillB re stonehenge today! Fascinating stuff.
