Good thing 80+ other people knew where to look.</i> No doubt some of the 80 (like me) have actually been there, so we had a pretty good idea where to look. The golf course and the fast food restaurants were not there when I visited in 1980. slacker says: I searched all day yesterday for pyramids with no luck.

Those buildings just northeast where the sphinx is looking...? A KFC, a Burger King.......... it's awful to know that people are leaving the vicinity of the Sphinx and going straight for nuggets from the Colonel. The pyramids are so much more immense than you can imagine. each block is taller than I am. And I'm three foot five! Here, incidentally, is one of the coolest parts of Cairo: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=30.048369,31.264515&spn=0.005600,0.007381&t=k&hl=en The big open sqaure is the Khan al Khalil market, if memory serves me. North of that is "Islamic Cairo", a jumble of winding streets, centuries old buildings, and lots of poverty. But it's so incredible to walk around and see the ancient architecture and chaos of modern life... incredible. What’s really sad: I was in Egypt in spring 2004.
