The first full day of our world tour, wow. We landed in Sharm El Sheikh at 8pm local time to an amazing 38 degrees. A 10 min bus ride to the hotel and we were drenched with sweat and wondering how we were going to cope. The locals said it was a very humid evening and that it’s normally somewhat cooler – we’ll see!
With all the excitement and somewhat trepidation we were a little jaded. A short trip to the supermarket to buy 15 litres of water and a beer in the hotel bar we headed to bed.
We woke early and excited about starting our PADI course which was amazing and it was only the first day. We didn’t take the camera out as we felt a little unsure about the security around the hotel. We have broke the back of the theory work spending several hours on front of a tv and while answering textbook questions. More tomorrow, but with much more time spent diving. Will have loads of photos on our dives later.
We are already in chill mode sitting here drinking Sakara (local beer) while writing this post. The weather is fab, the booze and fags are cheap, rock on Egypt!
Just some pics of the hotel surroundings:
