Today I watched with the rest of the world as the Egyptian people rejoiced over their amazing victory. I wish that I could have been there for the party, watching their pure joy was incredible and inspiring, even all the way from Canada.
Of course there is still uncertainly and without a doubt there are long , tough days ahead but for today Egypt is triumphant! Today I am proud to be a part some small part of this country and to know people who helped to bring about this monumental change.
All I can say is how glad I was that you were home during that time of unrest. We felt much better knowing that you were safe and sound in Toronto. I couldn't imagine watching all of that uprising and knowing you were there. Much nicer having you here as we were glued to CNN and BBC.

Happy 7th Month in Egypt Day - although you are not in Egypt this weekend you are enjoying the sights of Istanbul - pretty amazing! Must be a whirlwind trip!

Happy St. Patrick's Day - I hope you are wearing something green and keeping with tradition! I am sure thre is not a lot of St. Patrick's Day celebrations in Egypt - no green beer. I am sure you are missing your St. Patrick's Day socks. The word is that it is time for a new blog - or so I have been hearing from your followers.
