Thanks to the countless hours of research Lea did for this trip, we're seeing some off-the-beaten-track sites. This pyramid was a stop on our drive from Cairo to Minya. It was a hazy morning, and the horizon wasn't very clear. About 40 minutes outside Cairo, Frank and I both started to see some mountain off in the distance. The closer we got to it, the more we realized it was a man-made structure--the pyramid of Maidum! :-) Needless to say we had the entire site to ourselves and it was a real treat to see. Thanks, Lea! :-)
Hi, Stuart!

Love,
