Just not safe to travel these days - from the Daily Express:
Egyptian pyramids bombing - six dead in attack near major tourist attraction
The explosion appeared to have come from a rubbish bin in Cairo along a route used to access the entrance to the world heritage site, which lies in a western suburb of the capital.
Giza, one of the the seven wonders of the world and the only one to remain largely intact, welcomes thousands of British tourists every year.
Egypt depends on tourism for much of their revenue - 47% of their labor force are in services (29% agriculture and 23% industry). I hope they do the right thing and denounce the terrorists who did this.
