Cairo: some old triangles.

My group, complete with a tour guide with a zebra sun umbrella. Noooo, we're not tourists at all...

Obligatory I-was-in-Egypt-and-saw-the-pyramids picture.

According to our tour guide, the Sphinx wasn't actually supposed to be a sphinx originally. The plan was to carve a statue of the pharaoh, with the human body and everything - but after they did the head, they realized there wasn't enough stone between the head and the ground to finish with a standing body. So...you know...reclining lion body. Would've been my first solution, too.
