Good morning, friends \u2014 and happy Week Before Eid to you all. <\/strong>Five (or maybe four, if you\u2019re in Cairo \/ Doha \/ Riyadh) more days and we can all slide into some time off. God knows we\u2019ve earned it after the events of the past three-and-a-half months. <\/p>\n

From the EnterpriseAM Dept. of Tourism Promotion: <\/strong>If you\u2019re thinking about booking into Egypt for the holiday, you might want to get a move on. The Mediterranean coast was long a secret known only to Egyptians, but holidaymakers from Saudi and the UAE have made it their own the past two years. <\/p>\n

Rooms for next week are starting to fill up<\/strong> \u2014 and El Gouna, the Red Sea destination loved by Europeans and Egyptians alike, selling out even faster, we\u2019re told.<\/p>\n

Added bonus: <\/strong>Rates in Sahel go up for the Eid days, but they\u2019re still substantially lower than you\u2019ll pay in July and August. It\u2019s not really swimming weather, but as a break from the heat and tension? Hard to beat. \u2013Patrick and Salma<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
