Day 5

So obvious to end up at the Pyramids if you are in Cairo.
Not so obvious if you think that these old ladies have been observing us for more than 4,ooo years,
greeting (too) many courtesy visits.


Today what they were witnessing was a furious clash between Tahrir protesters and the police.
At least 3 were shot dead, authorities said gas was the cause, but Cliff Cheney and Twitter have a different opinion.
Meanwhile, Seminaris Hotel has been attacked and occupied by protesters.

No wonders that tourists today were less than pink-plastic Sphinx sellers.
