Pyramids - the Sphinx

It is there, between me and the Pyramid of Cheops.  When Mum and I returned for the sound and light show we got a much better view.  People usually think that this huge statue of a human-headed lion, carved out of soft sandstone, was modeled after the pharoah Chefren, but some archaeologists think it may be much older.  

Somewhere the Sphinx

It's a mystery really.  Nobody's at all sure why it's there.  This was where my horse got fed up and dropped me off.
