Hi Everyone! The Luxor trip will be postponed til further notice. Hopefully, the situation will get better, so we can re-schedule. I'll keep you guys posted.

I just watched a program about sexual assault on women in Egypt, not to mention the youtube video that showed a young woman who was sexually assaulted at Sisi's victory party in Tahrir Square. I'm shocked like everyone else! Luxor will be on hold indefinitely.
OK..Sisi is officially the new president. Let's see what will happen. He had a very low voting turnout, so this could go either way. Now we wait.......
Egyptian elections are taking place. Let's keep our fingers crossed. I just watched on the news about Egyptian tourism hitting all time low. Maybe Sisi will restore things to normal, or make it better. Let's hope for the latter!

I think Egypt will get better.
It's still going to be a waiting game for now. The sexual harassment is a real deterrent.
Looks like Egypt will be secure soon. They're getting lots and lots of cash from all directions!
Yes, you're right John, let the waiting game begin. I'm going to wait awhile to see what happens. I might visit my friend in Jordan instead.

Hi Ashley. I think things will get better after Sisi is in office. Well...It may take a little while but I'm confident it will get much better.
I've seen on the news that their tourism has gone down over 3 million people who visit each year. I guess we are in those figures somewhere.

I wouldn't plan that trip for awhile. All hell has broken loose - again!
