I'm looking forward to seeing this with the family and hubble 3D for the second time.
I have been to Egypt and seen tutunkhamens artefacts at the Cairo Museum, they are quite incredible. I was fortunate to be taken on a personal guided tour, the museum is one of the best i've ever seen, there's just so much of history and story out there.

I saw the mummies as well. they were smaller than I expected, but well preserved.
went into one of the pyramids. quite incredible. only surprise was the sphinx, a lot smaller than one would imagine.

but coming back to tutunkhamen, it is definitely worth seeing and the keen eye will pick up a lot.
