Finding a tomb. Pretty exciting, right? Some of you may say, "Uhh yeah!!!" while others may be sitting there thinking, "Why would anyone want to go on a llonnngg journey, just to find an old mummy in a sarcophogus?" Well, if you're thinking about the second response, I would take it back. When Howard and his men found the tomb, they were simply astonished! (and to be honest, I guess I would be too...it held gold!!!) But instead of finding gold, he only found King Tutankhamen..dead, old, and crinkly in his sarcophogus. And all that Howard felt was a wave of relief and astonishment because he had finally found the tomb.
