RED SEA HOLIDAYS LAST DAY

For the last two weeks my world was in Hurghada/Egypt at the Red Sea. We only went out once to Hurghada center otherwise we spent the whole day at the beach and afternoons and evenings when it got dark already at around 4 pm in the Hotel lounge.



Swimming in the sea



or in the pool (I never did)



Watching the animation team dancing



Overlook on the beach



and Hourghada from far



Diver's boats, they went away early mornings.



and of course we also spoiled ourselves, Nicole had a hair cut, manicure and pedicure and I only pedicure. They were such a funny couple that we laughed all the time and joked with them. But they did a very good job ! Nicole taught the girl a French love song which started with "Mustafa, oh Mustafa" and she wanted to learn it because her husband's name was Mustafa ! She learned it very quickly !



Evenings in the lounge



and our luggages besides the huge Christmas tree ! and then off to the airport.

RED SEA HOLIDAYS DECEMBER 5

When I open the curtains at 6 am (if I am awaken) the sun shines and the sea is blue ! A very unusual view in December !

The breakfast is just wonderful such a choice !



salads



Yogurts



English breakfast



Olives, cheese etc





A large choice of pastry



and bread !

So Nicole and I eat like horses, but as lunch only a salad and then a real supper !

So far we still look slim and not (yet) like Ruben's female ideal !

We are too lazy to attend the shows or theater in the evenings it only starts at 9.30 pm and we are too tired. I think that must be the fresh air and sunshine the whole day.

At home I never eat breakfast, I just have coffee, but here I just can't resist the pastries, they are so light and not too sweet !

RED SEA HOLIDAYS DECEMBER 4

I must be really tired because usually when I am here I get up at 6 the sun is shining and I prepare my posts. This year I sleep ! This morning I woke up at 8.30 am ! Poor Nicole was wondering where I was, she waited for me for the breakfast !

The wind had slowed down and the sky was painted in deep blue without a single little cloud. It was warm but not too hot.

Our resting was interrupted by a "marching in" of the cooks ! They carried a long plate of delicious snacks to the beach bar and were dancing and made music ! What fun !



The cooks carrying the plate



They asked me to pose with them



and with Nicole too, the snacks on this huge plate disappeared in seconds ! It was as if an army of hungry aunts had passed by !


Yesterday evening a whole bus arrived with English people. After supper I talked to a young couple from Cambridge who had never been to Egypt and gave them a few tips.

I am sorry if I don't visit your posts very often, I try at least to answer your comments, but the internet connection is so slow that a snail is a race horse !
