You and Pharaoh: A Tale of Two Coasts (But Mostly Miles)
Ever looked at a globe (or that dusty world map in your attic) and thought, "Man, how far is Egypt from California, anyway?" Yeah, us too. Because let's face it, mummies and Hollywood just seem oddly incompatible distance-wise.
Breaking Out the Measuring Tape (Virtually Speaking)
So, we decided to ditch the dusty map and dive into the wonderful world of the internet. Turns out, there's more to this distance thing than meets the pyramids (sorry, not sorry for that one).
-
As the Bird Flies (Because Birds Don't Need Passports): Google says the shortest distance between Cairo, Egypt and Los Angeles, California (because, let's be honest, that's probably where most Californians would land) is a whopping 7,580 miles (or 12,199 kilometers). That's farther than a Pharaoh could fling a sandal in a temper tantrum.

California Dreamin' on an Airplane: Buckle up, buttercup, because if you're planning a mummy-free California vacation after your Egyptian expedition, you're in for a roughly 21-hour flight. Think of all the in-flight movies you can catch! Just avoid any airplane disaster flicks – we wouldn't want to jinx anything.
The Takeaway: Farther Than You Think, But Totally Worth the Trip (Probably)
So, there you have it. Egypt and California: separated by a vast ocean, a whole lot of desert, and enough miles to make your head spin. But hey, that just means more adventure on the way, right? Just be sure to pack your sunscreen, some snacks for the plane (because those tiny pretzels just don't cut it), and maybe a good book on hieroglyphics (to impress the folks back home).
After all, who knows? You might just discover your inner Indiana Jones on your journey from Pharaohs to Hollywood.
