At Cairo (2).

It was a visit to the pyramids that was the major schedule on our day’s program. Got up at 5, the chores and was out of the hotel by a half past 7.          

Reached the spot after a drive for almost two hours. Mohammed, our guide gave us a detailed cover and Lekha and I enjoyed every bit of our time with Honey, the handler and Cappuccino, the horse of the carriage which we'd used to traverse close to the pyramids. While Honey was trying to help the other horse driver with his animal, I handled the rein fairly well. Cappuccino must have realised that I wasn’t to be trifled with and therefore, she did behave.

Both of us had ‘falafel’ for lunch.          

Saw the Cairo museum. Lekha went through the rigmarole as she didn’t want to miss a single sight. 

While returning, she’d a fall. Will know it’s nastiness only by tomorrow morning.

Went for the son-et-lumiare of the pyramids. Had a late night dinner.  


Tailpiece.

Hope Lekha's fall doesn't become a dampener!
