There was another big protest in Tahrir over the weekend. After being chased by riot police during the last protest we weren't sure whether to should attend this one. A friend suggested that we rent a room at the Intercontinental Hotel which overlooks the entire square, (and most of Cairo) where we could watch the potential tear gassing from a safe distance. The demonstration went on throughout the day and night with no military intervention.
