Out of Egypt.
We are headed to the airport in about 4 hours, to return to Grand Rapids.
Today turned out to be quite different than we had planned. We planned to have everything packed, sleep in, and go see some of the last sights that we have not yet seen here in Cairo.
Thank God that we didn't do that.
There were two "attacks" at or near tourist sites today. If anything will tell you that it is time to go home, bullets and bombs will do the trick.
The details of what happened are very sketchy at best. One report says a bomb was thrown, another that the bomber jumped off a bridge and "unintentionally" detonated the bomb.
The second incident was reportedly two veiled women who opened fire on a tour bus.
In any case, we are, as the song says,
"Leaving on a jet plane,
Don’t know when we’ll be back again."
What happens next on the Dan and Carrie Show now that our heroes are leaving Egypt? That's a good question.
You will just have to stay tunned.
