https://clumsyfool.wordpress.com/2013/07/08/down-down-down-me-between-bent-and-red-in-dahshur
How a weirdo sees the world…. Down, down, down – Me between Bent and Red in Dahshur. Yesterday I told you that I went to Saqqara on my free day. That’s perfectly true, but I also went to Dahshur and Memphis. One at the time; First Saqqara, now Dahshur and if you check in tomorrow or the day after, you’ll find my post about Memphis. Both the pyramids in Dahshur were build in the 4. Dynasty by king Sneferu, that’s the father of Khufu, who build the Great Pyramid I saw in Giza. Inside the Red Pyramid. No, t...

How a weirdo sees the world…. A nice place to be. Everyone who has been reading (or better, looking at) my recent posts will know that I have been trying to take some pictures of my university campus. However, as my followers will know, I have been distracted, first by various birds ( New Life🙂. And then by flowers ( The colour and beauty of Stirling. I know that I am deluding myself by thinking that people regularly check in to my blog, but hey! Leave a girl her dreams! June 7, 2013. June 7, 2013.

How a weirdo sees the world…. Is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever. . . it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” – Aaron Sussman. A photograph can capture reality as objectively as nothing else can. A moment frozen in time that you can revisit as often as you like. On this page, I will post photos that I find are meaningful, interesting or beautiful. Kenyan elephants sand bathing (? What a beautiful and proud cat. ...

Remains of a once great imperial city | clumsyfool
https://clumsyfool.wordpress.com/2013/07/11/remains-of-a-once-great-imperial-city
How a weirdo sees the world…. Remains of a once great imperial city. It really is sad. What once was the first great imperial city of ancient Egypt. Is now reduced to a tiny open air museum. Founded about 3100 BC. By king Menes (for those of you who don’t know their Egyptian history. This was the guy who united Upper and Lower Egypt. 8216;s capital city during the Old Kingdom. Still houses an great piece of ancient history. I mean that literally; the gigantic statue of Rameses II. The statue of Rameses II.

Fly away! | clumsyfool
https://clumsyfool.wordpress.com/2013/06/14/fly-away
How a weirdo sees the world…. The excitement of going somewhere far away, experiencing new adventures, meeting new people. Soaking in a different culture, reinventing yourself! The excitement and the longing of going home, see your family and friends, the comfort of your own bed and familiar surroundings! Airports are so shiny, everything blinks and is overpriced. Also, there never seem to be enough seats! Still, I love it! I find it unbelievable that such enormous machines can fly! June 14, 2013. Here&#...

https://clumsyfool.wordpress.com/2013/07/24/guest-in-the-home-of-the-ancient-egyptian-gods
How a weirdo sees the world…. Guest in the home of the Ancient Egyptian Gods. Is one of the reasons I desperately wanted to visit Luxor. Some say that Karnak is Egypt’s. Site, even more so than the famous Giza Pyramids. I agree, but for me Karnak is so much more. It is one of the most beautiful and most impressive places I have ever seen! Karnak had been Egypt’s power base throughout the ancient Middle. And still today, you can see nearly every Pharaoh. 8216;s mark hidden somewhere in the Temple. July 24...
