The past few days have been filled with news from Egypt. The worst demonstrations in Cairo have been in the area near the hotel in which we stayed. I went back and looked again at my postings from our Egypt trip (the trip was in November 2007 but I didn't post until February 2008 so you will find them under the 2008 date). Brought back a lot of memories from our trip but I paid special attention to the cursory notes I had made on poverty, congestion and pollution and found them prescient. Those poor people!
Hope to get back to posting on Israel and Jordan one day soon. The state legislature is in session and the agenda is crowded with things I need to do for the Coalition. As soon as Gifted Education Day is done with (February 11), Bob and I will go down to Livermore to rest and recuperate (me) and to garden (Bob). Maybe I'll get the rest of this trip posted then or soon after.

The recent events in Egypt made me glad you have this blog with your pictures and observations from your trip several years ago.
