## Caption

No pictures or video could ever do justice to what I have experienced. Even if you saw the Osirieon or the Serapeum in IMAX or at the Sphere it couldn’t begin to capture the scale of actually being inside these ancient temples. One simply must come to experience the magnitude of it all for oneself. 

That being said I will give you a few pictures in the hopes it will connect with some of you and spur you to come. 

Our visits to the Serapeum and the Osirieon at Abydos cannot be compared to anything I have ever been through in my 61 years. Not even close. And the  dinner of Thai food that we just finished literally on the banks of the Nile river with patriciaawyanlehman and stephenmehler was like drinking from a fire hydrant. 

The amount of knowledge, answers to questions I’ve had for 37 years, and filled in missing pieces is literally staggering. And the synchronicities continue to come in waves, falling like dominoes. Enjoy these pictures. I will have both of them on my podcast soon if fate continues to be in a pleasant mood. These two beings are formidable. And they both sat at the feet of the master, the Egyptian indigenous wisdom keeper Abd’el Hakim Awyan. 

I’m also going to start posting a picture of every person that swears I’m from Egypt. When they hear me talk they are befuddled. They can’t believe I’m a tourist. Even though I tell them I’m not from here they all say “Welcome home” to me when we’re done talking. It’s really weird! 

Cool weird!

PS: Check out the friggin PLATINUM sarcophagus! Never seen one of those before in my entire life!  #oteilinegypt #11:11 #12:12 📷 jeffreyallenprice and a few from myself.
