They don't want them on their territory just after they succeeded in, for the most part, putting them down after a few decades. I go to visit Egypt next month and the tour company is bombarding me that they will make sure everything is safe, but should things spill over they will refund me. Told my wife, if that happens then were just going to go back to Cancun and probably do some property shopping. Nothing should happen there, right? Right? RIGHT?
