GOOD BYE HURGHADA - PHOTO HUNTERS

We are leaving today this beautiful place and will return into the cold and grey weather !
Here Chantal enjoys the last day of heat, sunshine and blue sky





We had quite a lot of Egyptian guests who were very friendly. Butter and coffee spoons are available again without special request at breakfast, because the Russians are gone ! The once who are still here are all behaving correctly and don't need to steal butter and spoons.

Next time I will write a post I will have my little Rosie on my lap, Arthur on the bed, and Pookie in the basket. I really have missed them (I am talking about my cats for those who wonder that my children sleep in baskets and on my bed.

As there is nothing else to do in the evenings but window shopping and feeling the athmosphere of another world, we walked along the main road yesterday night and found a shop with beautiful semi-precious stones. The prices are so unbelievable cheap for us that I couldn't resist to buy these once and Chantal bought 5 too. At home we wouldn't even get a plastic collar for the same amount. I think it is due to the many stones you find in the dessert or in the sea. There are so many turquoise and coral jewlery and of course other stones too. I think when I come home I have to learn a little more about these stones.







Coral necklace








Rose quartz

These collars have an average cost of 5 € ! and they are nice gifts for Christmas !
