My Aunt and Uncle are vacationing in Egypt, staying at 'some resort' and we haven't heard anything from them. [Frown]

Of course, my Uncle was also in NYC during 9/11. I guess he just happens to be where the stuff goes down. I guess that what happens when you're a freelance Videographer under contract with the BBC...

Looks like the terrorists want Israel to attack Egypt.

Hopefully, things don't get out of hand there.

Hoping that your aunt and uncle get good news to you soon, Taalcon. Is there any chance that they're at some other resort and that since they're on vacation they haven't heard the news of the attacks so don't know to contact you for reassurance of their continued existence?

I seems that no American was killed or injured (for what I read until now).

Hey, looks like they are. While not TOO far from where it happened, they were far enough. They called today.

Thanks to all who were concerned. [Group Hug]
