Sea Year and Egypt Unrest

DD was passing through Port Said on Saturday - just when riots were expanding beyond Cairo, and were first reported to have extended to Port Said. The Email server on her ship has been out of service for over a week, so the ship was not aware of any unrest in North Africa. (They were aware that the Packers are in the Super Bowl, though!). The cargo ops were suspended, and they joined the next southbound convoy through the canal..

I recieved a text msg. from DD today stating:

"Good morning! It's a balmy 80 in Salalah, Oman. We're dropping our Port Said cargo here before Jebel. ..."

My previous message stated 'no news is good news', but today's news is even better! Thanks for support from other posters on this site.
