Description
college, I thought about becoming an archaeologist and go as far as a
course on Egyptian civilization. I always had a fascination with the
pyramids, artwork and historical intrigue of that early empire. Career
and life took me in other directions, but I finally got to take a
vacation there last year. The highlight of the trip was getting up
before dawn and taking a fifteen-minute cab ride from Cairo to Giza –
the home of the sphinx and a grouping of three pyramids.
I got there
just in time to see the sunrise on the eastward-facing sphinx. Nothing
can prepare you for this experience. There they stand in the middle of
the endless desert, seemingly rising out of nowhere, with Cairo a
mirage in the distance. I remember placing my hands on the cool
limestone of the Pyramid of Cheops, imagining myself in the court of a
great pharaoh.
Before heading back to my hotel, I stopped at one of the
little shops that sell an endless array of perfumes and spices for
tourists. I bought small handfuls of licorice, cinnamon and orange
peel, which I still have today. At home, in the quiet of early dawn, I
sit with my cup of Egyptian Licorice® and its familiar scents from that
little shop, and I am royalty in the land of the great pyramids.
