Gone. mona, he's gone. i'm going to start crying now remembering it and went back on the radio show and bawling my eyes out telling them i cannot express how ecstatic we are. there is a long road ahead no doubt but the happiest day of my life and stop and celebrate and salute the courageous egyptians who in 18 days in a beautiful and peaceful way brought down a dictator of 30 years, it's a wonderful moment. i cannot be hannier. so proud to be egyptian. >> and so what do you say about president -- now former president mubarak. was he courageous in his final act or basically had no choice and go...

Let's go to arwa damon, on the streets of cairo, where the partying, celebration continues. >> reporter: hi, wolf. the celebrations here most certainly do continue. as i'm speaking to you, there are fireworks erupting on top of tahrir square, the people here forgetting about the fact that they've been keeping this up for more than two weeks. now just relishing in the fact that truly they are making history not just in egypt but around the entire region. this is dina joining me right now. dina, what are your thoughts? >> i am very happy now. always the people of egypt are very happy because mub...
