We in Luxor are living in an unpredictable time and it is hard to know where things are leading or what might happen next. Perhaps what is happening now in Luxor is new to us or perhaps the elders have seen something like this in the past. I am quite sure and hope that for the locals it will bring them together, lots a chat around a tea and shisha in the cafes.
For the local Luxor people, I wish you all well and hope that some sense prevails soon and all can get about their businesses and lives once again, perhaps to even have that dream of things getting back to as it used to be and for the tourists to arrive once again in great numbers.
Good luck.
