Visiting the pyramids

This morning we were up at 7, had breakfast at the Cairo Europa Hotel and then made our way to the pyramids. 14 cyclists entered the Great Pyramid and 8 made it to the center. We then visited the sphinx and are presently in the old Christian Coptic quarater. Hightlight of the day so far: Tim Simon grazed his head in the pyramid, requiring medical attention. Don't worry, it's a minor scratch. Soon we will be making our way to the Sinai and Ras Sudr where we will meet our bikes and spend the night. The temperature is 26 degrees C and we are keeping up the water intake.
