The sun shone bright but not hot like the days before. At first,
the streets were as calm as dead of night then MARCH and CHANT. Hundreds of
men, women and children proudly carrying the red, white and black flag bearing
the eagle took to the streets. A flood bearing the Egyptian flag, they marched
in groups, their voices resounding, shaking the ground. “ERHAL! ERHAL!” They
shouted over and over. Their voices louder than thunder and more fierce than
angry lightning, but as peaceful as the flowing Nile.
*"Erhal!" means "Leave" in Arabic.
