It was much cheaper in Cairo and the lines were a lot shorter. :-)
Caught mine in New Orleans. Can understand being cheaper in Cairo, like buying boots in Texas.
The Egyptian Museum in Cairo has more Tutankhamun stuff in storage than they have on display at any given time. I was there in '84 and that 10 day trip was an unforgetable experience. In addition to visiting Tut's treasures in the museum, we visited Tut in his tomb in the Valley of the Kings. I recommend the touring exhibit to you!
