I don't always do so well in cramped, dark places, so I knew it would be a challenge. What I didn't know was that a fuse would blow and all the lights would go out when I was half way up the initial ascent. Of course I had left my flashlight back at the hotel! A number of deep breaths and an American couple in front of me with a flashlight saved me, and I maneuvered into the main chamber with them and saw what we could by flashlight. The lights were still off inside when we climbed back down and emerged into the blinding sunshine. I loved going in the Great Pyramid on my last trip to Egypt.
