Moonrise over Saudi Arabia
Hey blog fans.

Andrew and I are in the resort town of Dahab, on the Gulf of Aqaba, on the Red Sea. Since the last update we did some more sight seeing in Luxor, rented a Felucca (sail boat) on the Nile for a few hours, and then flew to the Sinai. We are staying in a fancy-ish resort, but we made friends with a British guy that runs the dive shop at the resort. He took us to a Bedouin village last night. We drove for about 20 minutes, then rode camels for a little over an hour to the village.

The village was on the beach, right next to a coral reef. We chilled out for a bit with a few beers (and had a few on the camel ride too) ate some local cuisine including some tasty kebabs and then went for a night snorkel. We slept on the beach and woke up to the sunrise over Saudia Arabia, which was about 20 km away.

We relaxed on the beach for most of the morning, when snorkeling some more, and made it back to the resort by 2. Good day.

One more day at the resort, then one more in Cairo, then home. Good trip.
