Pictures for previous days have been posted.
I got up in the morning and looked out over the pool with palm trees into the bay of the Red Sea in the beautiful sunshine. It was just beautiful. To the left out our window we could see the mountains of Jordan, and not far to the south down the Red Sea was the board with Egypt. We had decided that today would be our day of rest, so Ben and Kristin were sleeping late. I took a walk along the promenade, which is a tile walkway all along the beach in front of the hotels and the many, many, shops, both indoor and expensive and outdoor beach junk. It was a beautiful morning.
Once Ben and Kristin were up and we all had breakfast, we went out to the beach to sun ourselves and swim. It was just wonderful. At lunch time we walked a bit over to the shopping mall and had lunch on a patio looking out over the sea. Then we went back for more swimming and sunning. At night we went to La Cucina for a very nice Italian meal. And then Ben and Kristin had a new experience. They had both been complaining about needing a pedicure, and what did we find but Dr. Dag, which was a place where you put your feet in a pool filled with little fish who ate the dead skin off. I did not want that, but they thought that it was fun - Kristin did at first think that it was pretty weird. So that was the big event of the day.
