CEC Day -1

Today is -1 since the rally doses not start until tomorrow. And tomorrow is all meet and greet stuff. Riding starts on Thursday.

Today's tour started at 9:00 am local time. Which is early for me since that's 2:00 am my time (CDT).
None the less I got up to grab some fruit and hit the road.

The Pyramids were amazing. I was the only person on this tour, so I ended up having a personal guide! I learned some amazing facts and even had the opportunity to go into Menkaure's  Pyramid, which made me feel tall. You enter and walk down a shaft about four to five feet tall.
















After the pyramids, we headed to lunch where I tried a great local dish. I forgot the name, but it was an eight-inch bowl of noodles, rice, beans and tomato sauce. It was delicious, but I think I broke my "low carb diet."

















My guide then took me to the Egyptian museum where the lecture continued.  What an amazing culture. I had a great day out seeing the sites and walking through the city.
It's now almost 4:00 pm, so I'm going to be heading for dinner in a few hours.

More to come later.
