ok, so perhaps not so little. . . but by Egyptian touristic standards, quite small (believe me, I've seen the size of the boats on the Nile - boy those things truly are floating hotels - and not very nice ones at that)(but I'm saving my Nile pics for a while longer, so let's just sit back and relax and enjoy the Red Sea for a little longer shall we?!)
doesn't look very red does it, so I asked my touristic guide where the name derives from and he told me it's the colour of the dawn and dusk light reflected off the Red Sea mountains (of which more another time)hope y'all having a lovely day!
when I wake up in the morning, love
and the sun light hurts my eyes
and something without warning, love
bears heavy on my mind
then I look at you and the world's alright with me
just one look at you and I know it's gonna be
a lovely day
when the day that lies ahead of me seems impossible to face
and someone else instead of me always seems to know the way
then I look at you and the world's alright with me
just one look at you and I know it's gonna be
a lovely day

*happy sigh*
What a gorgeous sea for the little boats to sail in.
Oh little boats!
Laughing - so lovely to see real ones :) And I am waiting eagerly for the Nile pics but very happy to see the Red Sea in the meantime. How can a red thing be so blue!
mig ooooh. . . the Nile - now there is a truly incredible and awe inspiring body of water!!! don't think my pics will do it justice, but I'll try and explain how moving it is. . .
my guide also told me that another reason the Red Sea might be called such is because of the red coral - of which I have photos, but they were on a disposable underwater camera and I'm not sure how to transfer them to this silly netbook thingy. . .
Mel I had SUCH a grand time!!! thanking you kindly!!

Christopher I'll tell you what, whoever runs the Mahmya Red Sea operation out of Hurghada must be making an absolute fortune (altho my trip was free cos the holiday company forgot to collect me from the airport when I arrived in the middle of the night on a domestic flight from Cairo, and this was their way of apologising for that)
