Here, we\u2019re served a buffet lunch with an appealing selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, there are the obligatory pizza and spaghetti bolognese, but there are also fresh salads, dressings, sauces, chicken, and a cylindrical meat dish that I find particularly appetizing. They say it\u2019s beef, and it seems to have been cooked over an open flame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freshly grilled dishes are generally the safest choice when traveling in unfamiliar places, and this meal immediately triggers my Pavlovian reflex. I add rice and balsamic vinegar salad to my plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a bleak breakfast of muesli and protein bars, I\u2019m thoroughly enjoying this lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I notice a staff member bringing more of the cylindrical meat from the grill, so I go for a second serving. From what I can see, they shape the minced meat around a metal rod, which is then placed directly over the fire. It\u2019s a clever method because the meat cooks through evenly thanks to the metal rod.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lvarga\/54256678988\/in\/datetaken-public\">Photo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1:45 PM<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> We\u2019re only two streets away from the archaeological park as the crow flies, but the bus has to take a longer route to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even on the map, you can see that \u201cpark\u201d is not the right word for it; it\u2019s the size of a small city like Keszthely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The surrounding area is so overburdened by urban sprawl that highways encircle the site.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lvarga\/54256745145\/in\/datetaken\/\">Photo 1<br><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lvarga\/54256322421\/in\/datetaken-public\"> Photo 2<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1:55 PM<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> I spot a mobile signal tower disguised as a palm tree \u2013 clever design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the background, the silhouettes of Giza\u2019s three pyramids come into view.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lvarga\/54256551893\/in\/datetaken-public\">Photo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2:23 PM<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> The stones of the first pyramid are as tall as a standing person.
