Turkey Bound

Heading to Turkey, to discover more about looted antiquities. Cairo teems below on a hazy Sunday morning. Last night the French embassy had its Bastille Day bash, 2,000 people in the garden of the embassy. A choir sang the French and Egyptian national anthems, there was disco music with throwback tunes (anyone remember "Life is Life" from the Eurotrash 80s?) and as much champagne as anyone could drink. I’ll be in transit for a day or two but will weigh in as soon as I can. Adios, dear friends and readers, for the moment.
