My belief in the level of safety in Egypt has been shaken...

While on vacation this past Monday, I heard the horrible news that Dahab had been bombed and that over 20 people were killed and alot more were injured. I felt a rush of panic for a few minutes then I made myself ignore what happened and not think about it. I couldnt believe what was happening in the country in which I had always felt safe. I'd be scared to walk around in Canada past 10pm alone but in Egypt I could walk around at any time and not have any worries. Our country can be dirty, can be crowded, but can never be unsafe. After the bombings in Taba, Sharm, Dahab, and now Sinai I'm not sure anymore...for the first time I'm starting to question how safe Egypt is. These events will not stop me from travelling to Sharm, Dahab, and Taba but they have affected me and saddened me. The areas that were bombed in Dahab were dear to me because I was there for New Years with my closest friends...that trip was one of the best trips I've ever had and now that same area has been bombed...it is now a place where people have died, a place that will be remembered by some as a place that was bloody and scary. That is what upsets me...I will always remember that place as where my friends and I would walk, talk, laugh, and sing...I hope everyone can remember Dahab, Sharm, Taba, etc as places where you bonded with people, had nice walks, danced the night away with friends, and tanned in the sun. I won't allow these bombs to stain my good memories...dont allow it to spoil yours either.
