The camel (below) and I

I was lucky. Friday morning arrived. Friday is here, what is with us Sunday and Saturday is also a day off. In addition, Sunday Holiday. I can so I had to rest a bit. The first day I spent at the pool. On Saturday, I'm walking a little run around. It is annoying. All five meters will take a one somewhere or what to sell or whatever. They all speak English to some extent. The word "No" does not seem to belong to known vocabulary. I decide that I do not move on foot here again. On Sunday I want to but then look at the pyramids. Which, although only about a kilometer, but still I'm taking a car from the hotel. It is very early, shortly after breakfast. Indeed, at the 9th A good time to break up.

So back to order a "grand tour" of the pyramids and. Three hours. The driver takes me there, waiting there and brings me back. On the way he asks me how I would look at that. The pyramids are located in an enclosed area. You can walk the walk. It is also possible the whole thing with a small desert excursion by camel or horse to join. Sounds quite interesting. With regard to the horse I choose a camel. A brief negotiation with the lender about the price and then it starts. The camel is some disgruntled noises when she sees me. It seems likely that there will be a little harder today. As the most difficult act of getting out there is the ride the camel. one must pay attention even to some extent, that there is a skin does not matter on the saddle, when the cattle butt lifts off the ground.

The riding is also somewhat different than a horse. The whole rocks mightily. Somehow, I soon felt myself getting sick. A kind of sea-sickness. But passed after a while. I had two companions. Zottelte a camel by a rope behind him. The other was the leader who told me everything. It came in a wide arc through the desert on a small hill to the pyramids to shoot some photos. Then to the Sphinx. Although it was not until around 10:00 clock, the sun was already quite severe.
After about 2 hours we were back at camel lender. The guide told me the road yet, that the price I had agreed, even if only for the camel. The two then I would have to pay extra. I gave him 200 pounds, which seemed quite appropriate, because you could get for it in the hotel a very good meal. But keep looking at me and stopped in my tracks. Since the rest of the day I did not want to spend on a camel in the scorching sun of the Sahara, I put on it yet 100th When they saw that I was not ready for more, it went on.
Even getting off the camel was not half bad. The rear part of the last cuts, have to watch a little bit that you do not end up face down in the sand. On camel hire, there was a tea that can cool off a bit and the camel was paid. You could be lucky to remember the agreed price. There was no further discussion. The driver took me back to the hotel and told me that the rent which they had called me at the hotel, even if only for the car. So even for a surcharge. That gets on your nerves.
