Egypt: The Greatest Show on Earth

Egypt: The Greatest Show on Earth

EXCERPT:

“Pyramids. Tell me your secrets.” At first, I thought it was at sunset that the Great Pyramid was in her crowning glory. But then the night sky blanketed the plateau. I realized that it is at night that her secrets are revealed.
Here, at what some claim is the center of Earth’s land masses, I experienced an unexpected and peculiar visual effect. The horizon drops off sharp behind the pyramids. It looks like you’re on the edge of the flat earth. As I gazed into the night sky, the stars and planets appeared, to me, not to be ‘up’ there as at home. They are ‘out’ there, and appear to be orbiting on a direct line ‘out’. It was quite an amazing experience. Standing alone at the edge of this great divide I felt a part of the revolving planets for the first time. Venus was so ‘close’ ‘over’ there that I felt as though I could step ‘off’ the Giza Plateau ‘onto’ the Planet of Love. What a trip!
