We went to the King Tut Exhibition at The O2 which was great. I was a little disappointed that they didn’t have some of the more important treasures there, but I guess the egyptians will never let them leave the country, so a trip to Egypt and Cairo at sometime in the future.

Good time to take photos though at 7am on a Saturday, the streets are totally empty of people and cars, perfect. See ‘collections‘ for all of my images taken on Saturday.

It was good fun and good practice for the Masai Mara. I’ll try to post some of the photos soon, unfortunately they won’t be available for purchase or download as I don’t have a property release from the zoo so they are simply for my own collection
