Had an outing yesterday. Hired a driver, tour guide and off we went. Great to get out and explore. Visited Saqqara, the first pyramid built in Egypt. Actually a series of slabs called the Step Pyramid. Then to Dashar, the first full pyramid build with smooth side and pointed top. Got to go into this one. Down a long corridor and into burial tombs. Saw the Bent Pyramid. And then off to Memphis for a little museum. Saw our first hieroglyphs. Enjoy the photos!
