I’m sure a lot has changed since you were last there. Security, Police, and military are everywhere, you can’t go 6 blocks without seeing someone with a gun. We had a Government Tourist Police Officer carrying a pistol and a machine gun with us everywhere we went. People were exceptionally nice and we never felt unsafe anywhere!
Funny story: The President of Egypt said “we have a drug problem here and we’re going to fix it.” Possession of drugs is now a Mandatory 25 years in prison, selling drugs is a Mandatory death sentence. Egypt doesn’t have a drug problem anymore!!! And the people love it!!!
Our best to you and Angie
