Zenobia visits Egypt and I visit the-next-best-thing Luxor in Las Vegas

Someday I will tour the real Egypt and see all the places Zenobia would have gone, but for now, I don't need a passport to go to Luxor in Las Vegas.

While Reading Zenobia - Birth of a Legend book #1 and Zenobia - Challenging a Legend book #2 you get to spend time in Egypt.  Today I tour around Luxor in Las Vegas to see if we can find some of the sights where Zenobia visited in the 3rd century.

The Sphinx at Luxor in Las Vegas is in a lot better shape than the original, it's approx 4,500 years newer.

"This monumental statue, the first truly colossal royal sculpture in Egypt, known as the Great Sphinx, is a national symbol of Egypt, both ancient and modern. It has stirred the imagination of poets, scholars, adventurers and tourists for centuries and has also inspired a wealth of speculation about its age, its meaning, and the secrets that it might hold."
