I asked our guide and she said it wasn't true. According to Fatma they were voluntarily built by a 100,000 people to show appreciation of the king. She is Egyptian and Muslim so maybe she's biased? Tough to say. I had been taught that the pyramids were built by slaves as well. I asked our guide and she said it wasn’t true.

Remember? We did pass over the Nile a few times via car. I wanted to dip my feet into it, but ran out of time. :( We watched that movie together in Hollywood at the Egyptian Theater — on a 70mm screen too! Remember?

I think you've gotten a great perspective now on how art is best scene in the setting it was meant for, not randomly placed in a museum. However, I think there are a lot of major Egyptian works in the Berlin museum of art. Why were the ancient Egyptians so obsessed with life after death? Did your guide go into any discussion about mummies? Imagine how cool it would be to take a cruise down the Nile! (I think there's an IMAX film about that) Well, enjoy your falafels!
