My friends in Egypt

Two days ago, to my happy surprise, I got an email from Shereen -- the daughter of my cab driver in Cairo. She was wondering, along with her family, how the rest of my trip went and whether I had returned home yet. I was so excited I replied right away, told her that I was doing well, and then asked the one thing I was dying to know from my friends in Egypt: what did they think of Barack Obama's speech?

Here is what she said:

"hi moira
