CH by one of the many statues on display.
Me by the Alabaster Sphinx.
The famous limestone statue of king Ramses II is pretty amazing. It's so huge and it's in such good condition. This is CH by the king's right hand ... and she had the bright idea to make a fist just like the statue, I wish I had thought of that. :-)
The statue of the king is lying down (because the lower parts of its legs are gone) and so you can see right up Ramses' nose.
Check out the two guys standing on the statue's left side. They were locals who were basically hanging around hoping to be photographed by some hapless tourist, whom they could then demand some money from.
A hapless tourist like CH! :-D (I wasn't with her just then or I'm sure I would have fallen for the trick too. :-) It's a good shot though, I really like it. :-)
This is us in the car going either to or from Memphis. Happy happy ... !! :-D
