A Thanks to Our Tour
Egypt Community
By
Jimmy Dunn
Recently, a man from the UK emailed me explaining some
problems we had with our Virtual
Red Sea Diving Center, specifically, with shipwrecks.
Some of them were just not correct. His name is Ned
Middleton and he is a highly knowledgeable professional
underwater photo-journalist. He is also the perfect
example of what makes Tour Egypt tick.
Since his initial email, he has completely reworked our
shipwrecks section, not only correcting our mistakes, but
also adding much more information and making it a much more
interesting read, as well as much more useful for people
perhaps heading for that locale. He is even sending us
additional pictures and graphics, and is now taking a look
at our Dive Sites section to determine what can be improved
in that section. We wish to express our sincere gratitude
to Mr. Middleton for his efforts. He will be coming
out with a book on the Red Sea, and we will review it for
our readers as soon as it is available. I look forward to
this, as his knowledge of diving the area seems almost
limitless.
But the point that I am attempting to make is that this
sort of effort by many people, and particularly all of our
writers, and editors of the Tour Egypt magazine, makes Tour
Egypt what it is today; perhaps the best and most up to date
resource on Egypt available in one place.
Tour Egypt is, and I hope will always be, an enthusiast
web site, where people who love Egypt come together to help
others. Of course, we try our best to help people with their
trip plans, but I also hope that some of the great feelings
we have for this country and its people somehow transfer to
our readers.
We of course encourage everyone who love Egypt and who
has specific knowledge about the country to join in.
From writing feature articles for our magazine to simply
helping travelers on the BBS, we appreciate our community of
people who do so much, and every new member of this
community is welcomed as a member of our
family. |
