These are pictures of our visits to three continents, several seas, and many islands and volcanoes.
Our travels are both Foreign and Domestic, and include scientific forays, adventure, cultural exchange, and just plain fun.
The Gizeh Pyramid Complex and the Sphinx
The Sphinx is noticeably older looking and is weathered differently than the three pyramids, and some theories are that it was constructed by people who were as ancient to the Egyptians as they are to us. One controversial theory is it was built before the last Ice Age in Europe, where its original lion sculture was worn down from hundreds of years of torrential rains from the melting ice. A later Pharoah carved his features on the disfigured lion's lump, giving the smallish head an uncharacterically out of proportion look to the carved rock.
