I'll go get my suit.

I'm not much of a history buff, but the pool at Le Meridien Pyramids makes me want to go bond with the ancients. I could stare at this picture for hours, so who knows how much time I could waste at the actual pool. I love the juxtaposition of the dapper bartender against the untamed desert of Giza. Do you order another zibib at the swim-up bar, or drag your lazy ass out of the pool and walk to the greatest wonders of the ancient world, barely a mile away? (Seriously, go to Google Maps and search "Le Meridien Pyramids, Cairo" on satellite view. And just ogle.) Besides, I just like the idea of staying at Le Meridien without having to turn my purse upside-down at the check-in desk -- it's only $130 for a deluxe king. More money for zibib!
