Sharm in the Egypt Crisis

Hello peeps!

Ok so today was a monumental day in Egypt's history.

For those of you following the news - not that you can miss it! Egypt has been dominating the world stage!

Well today was the day that many Egyptians wanted to be liberated from the same government of 30 years- however I don't believe they got their wish today, but I believe they will in the end!

Well I am please to say that Sharm is starting to get back on the map slowly.

Petrol is getting through, supermarkets are starting to fill their shelves up again, the banks are a little bit slower, but the internet is working once again.

I still hear planes landing, but Naama bay is still lacking one important ingredient.......
People/tourist!

The town is still quiet, the tourist are few and far between and as a result the locals are unable to work and therefore businesses are closing and laying off their staff.

Economically this has affected Sharm on a huge basis and it will take a while to recover.

The locals here in Sharm understandably are upset as this is their livelihood and they just wish to return to normal and start earning money!



Until da next Tyme !
