Giancarlo Stanton's offseason vacation included a trip to the Dead Sea and the Great Pyramids

Giancarlo Stanton is on vacation. He's been on vacation from his job, aka being a professional baseball demolisher, since the Marlins' final game of the season on Oct. 2. But he's also on vacation-vacation this week, traveling in the Middle East, and he appears to be enjoying himself quite a bit.
