BrOOklyn-JOrusalOm

A loong cycling journey from Brooklyn to Jorusalom, where the O’s are bicycle wheels, continued into Egypt, 1st to the climate conference COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh, on to the pyramids in Giza, Abusir and Saqqara and then up the Nile soourcewards.

Yesterday morning early i was in the King’s chamber(10) of the Cheops or Khufu pyramid. It was still quiet, just a few people. A bit later many people were ascending as i was descending (along the same steep stairs passage, 2-6-9).

See the explanation of this diagram in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pyramid_of_Giza. The chamber is at the bottom of the structure in red. Inside one only sees the chamber, not the structure, or airshafts (the two diagonal lines with also 10)
Just out of the pyramid, crowds there by now

Then i took a long walk around the pyramids and into the desert

Dogs live on the Cheops
