Pyramid Writing

I am in a dry, hot, sunny desert of Egypt  and there are three massive pyramids right in front of me. I am a Paleontologist's on an Archeological dig searching for fragile dinosaur fossils.

The pyramids look quite scary with the blue, cloudless sky behind it because the giant shadows of the pyramid loom down onto the sand like gargantuan metal space ships. I also think that there may be some tombs in the pyramids.

I walked inbetween two of the pyramids looking for fossils. I narrowly missed stepping in a pile of camel dung. I search for hours until finally just as the blazing sun was going down I spotted the skull of a Protoceratops lying in the sand a few metres away from me. I hurridly call the rest of my Paleontologist group on a walkie - talkie. Once my fellow Paleontologis’s had arrive we set up camp in the now frezzing cold desert.

When we woke up we started to get all our tools ready for the excavation of the Protoceratops skeleton. First I used a big brush to get rid of all the dust and sand off the skull. A drill was then collected from the camp and carried to the skeleton. The drill did a lot of the work. Finally after hours and hours of drilling, digging and brushing we uncovered our skeletons, or should I say skeleton’s. We had dug up a whole Protoceratops and underneath it a Velociraptor skeleton. I figured that the Velociraptor was attacking the Protoceratops.
