Archaeology Museum Pictures
The flowers outside were so beautiful and had an amazing scent. I just had to try to capture the scene on film...or, er, pixels...
These two carvings beckoned me, but then they started fighting and wouldn't let me go!
Mandy and I in front of our new clubhouse. I wanted to climb up the stairs into his belly, but visions of the "DONT TOUCH" guard kept haunting me, so I refrained.
We wanted to go down and see this place, but the gate at the top of the stairs was locked and since we (I) had already gotten yelled at for touching the stone tablets earlier, we decided not to go any farther...
Painted carvings of lions like this lined the streets where the Pharoah would walk down towards his palace. Or something like that. Mandy was afraid this one was getting a little hungry.

"Beware of Greeks bearing gifts."
Modern revision: "Beware of Greek students bearing itchy fingers."
Congratulations, Ali, on rewriting the Iliad; Homer would be proud. :)

You were yelled at for touching stuff in the museum? Why am I not surprised!! (I'm remembering your keen curiosity in trying to find out what was at the end of the cassette tape!) I love the posts and pictures! Love you and miss you--and pr--ing for you!
