Newsflash: Scheduled Egypt Travel

Written by Marco Morawec

Topics: Featured, Travel Advice

As some of you may know I had a flight to Cairo, Egypt scheduled for today (Saturday). Taking the flight would have meant arriving in Cairo just after the imposed curfew and arriving to a very unstable situation. Observing the news situation closely on Twitter, Blogs, LP Forum and a few local sources I decided to miss out on the Pyramids and also skip protests, tanks, fires and tear gas.

As much as I like to experience Egypt and the Pyramids, I think even I reached my limit of wanting to explore new countries and places when it means confronting massive civil unrest and potentially being stuck in a country without a&n option of getting out. Sorry Egypt, maybe another time.

The new plan for right now is making it straight to Jordan instead. Let’s see how that goes…

Thanks for all of your support, emails and Facebook posts. You guys rock!

Aloha,
Marco
