Protesters at Tahrir Square last week… Tahrir Square, or Liberation Square was a 10 minute walk from my hotel in Cairo. Some days it was safe to go there, other days it was a war-zone. The afternoon I took this picture there was almost a carnival atmosphere among the protesters, the air was full of hope for a better future.

A bus mans Holiday.. It will be one you won’t forget…
Joey,
These are great photos.
Joey! I’ve been worried about you over there. Good to see you’re ok. But now I am seriously concerned. Why is Tom Humphries slap bang in the middle of your pic? Researching his latest book on the GAA? The mind boggles…
Apparently they have a cracking hurling team in Cairo… we headed to a nearby Irish Pub after the protest to philosophise about the revolution
Definitely a “holiday” that will never be forgotten! Thanks Billy and Stephen.
