First Hand Account on Egypt?s "Friday of Wrath"

One of my best friends has an aunt that had been living in Egypt when all the protests and craziness began.  I've been reading her blog and I found it all so interesting I wanted to pass it along because I thought many of you might find it interesting as well to read a first hand account (from an American standpoint non-media related) of what was happening over there.

Wow, thanks for sharing! That was interesting, especially the messages from Egyptian people at the end.

It's so sad that there is so much violence and so many people have died, yet so cool that they could be close to a democracy. I know it sounds jingoistic, but it really does make me thankful I was born in America.

That was very interesting and I agree it was great to have the perspectives of Egyptians included. I shared it with people I know, too.

Yes - those Egyptian opinions were fascinating, as was her description of what the airport was like trying to get out of there. So horrifying! But it does really make you appreciate what we have here more doesn't it. [:/]

Wow, that was really fascinating yet terrifying at the same time. I am definitely going to share this with some people.
