Egypt

We arrived home just in time to wash some of our clothes, pack a bag and head off back to the airport, diving gear in tow! We hopped on a plane for Cairo, where we had booked into a hotel for 2 nights . We had one full day in Cairo, which we used to do the tourist things! Booked ourselves a guide, and went to the pyramids!




We rushed into the museum for a quick look before they closed the doors, and then enjoyed dinner at a restaurant on the nile. Had an early start the next morning, meeting the rest of the live-aboard travellers. We met them at Cairo airport and all flew to Hurghada, where we were met by our dive master for the week. Got taken to the boat and shown to our cabins!!! After the lost bags were retrieved and on board, we started out! After about an hour, we stoped for our first dive!


 After the dive, we were fed. a few more hours, and we stopped for a night dive. Fed again, then off to bed. Early start, 6.30, first dive at 7. Breakfast, rest, dive, lunch, rest, dive, snack, rest, night dive, weather permitting! And so it carried on for 6 days! What bliss!




































We spent our last night in a hotel in Marsa Alam, before heading back to Barcelona! Well rested and ready for anything!
