Here's a picture of all three pyramids at Giza

The Great Blockhead
I could be one of the pyramids.  It looks easy enough to just stand there for six thousand years.

Number One and Number Two
These are the two biggest ones.

Up Close
Here's a shot looking along the base of one of them.  You can walk right up to them.

The Great One
Here's number One.  The smooth surface on the top is what's left of the smooth surface on the whole thing.

Pyramids on my shoulder.
Talk about the weight of the world on my shoulders!  Try a couple of stone monoliths the size of football fields.

Joe Camel
What a coincidence that a camel (dressed in tourist attire) shows up and sits in front of a pyramid the same day as me?

Sphinx
Look at those paws!  No wonder he was such a good boxer.  (Come to think of it these are a lot of Mohamed Ali's here too).

Behind the Scenes
Here's what the area looks like.  Not well presented.  Lots of loitering and panhandling going on.

Sphinx & Pyramid
Okay, I got carried away with the sphinx shots.  It was just neat to get so close.
