    A family member sent me a picture from a trip to Egypt last summer. The two of them were in front of a pyramid. You could see the entire pyramid but the number of other tourists in the frame was ZERO. They said Cairo was perfect for a 16-hour layover because you wouldn’t want to spend longer than that!
