Scenes From The Friday of Anger, Cairo, January 28, 2011

Mike and I were in Egypt in 2011.
We had a tour of the country and arrived back in Cairo  January 28 to scenes of riot police, tear gas, marches, and smoke.
Here are some photographs Mike took on what is now known as the  Friday of Anger.

After the tear gas.

The march went right past our hotel.

Cairo on fire.

The official Molotov Cocktail of the Revolution.

This is on display in the toppled train at Santa Clara, Cuba.
Che Guevara stopped the train to cut off supplies to the army. Three days later Castro took over the country.
The train is still there, a sacred landmark of the revolution, and I couldn't help but be proud that Canada Dry was on the job.
