I have nothing even close to poetic to be said, we are so Happy. Last week, last friday, we went to the mosque and I said next friday we will come and Egypt will be free, the people will get what they want. I thought to myself on thursday night, I guess not this friday... I was wrong. Moments before leaving we heard Mubarak had stepped down. I think many people will be able to breath again tonight. Our hearts are filled with joy, we want to see a better Egypt. I have been so touched by all this, to see people, so many people, in the streets, asking for dignity, asking for a chance to choose better and to see the violence and such unity at the same time. This is not only something I will tell Khaled someday, but something that I hope he will learn a lesson from and feel this was a very special moment in time. The road ahead is unknown and will have some difficult times, but today we are all proud and even more for all Egyptians.
Here is videos and pictures from our day.
