I guess nowhere seems safe from terroist action these days and bombings can occur anywhere - as has been proven repeatedly over (at least) the past five years. Nevertheless, a week ago I was in Dahab redoing my open-water diver qualification, and I was due back there in three days time for our penultimate evening in Egypt. It is hard to imagine such a paradice wracked by explosions, but there is nothing like proximity to focus the mind.

Heartfelt sympathies and best wishes to all those who were hurt and to the families of those who were killed.
