Ceej & Jim! -- The Colossi
of Memnon
Also very self-explanatory! You can tell by
the way my lower legs are bent backwards that I was not having
a good leg day by then. Getting off the bus just about did me
in.
If I have any one regret about being so knackered
in by the 3rd Pyramid, it was that I wasn't able to get down
and take a picture up close, like those other folks are doing.
It would have been neat to see them up close and personal, and
I might have been able to get some good, worms-eye shots.
Fortunately, as those other folks are in this
picture, you can really get a sense of how large those Colossi
are. They stand at 18 meters high -- about the height of a modern,
6-story building.
