Today we headed out of Cairo to the Red Sea coast, so I thought a license plate might be appropriate, as most of our day was spent on a bus. There were a lot of security stops as we made our way out there, a couple requiring us to fish out our passports. There are a lot of worries about Islamic insurgents out here, added to the fact that the Red Sea has a number of countries surrounding it: Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Israel. As you can guess, it has the potential to be quite the stew.
