Ras Mohamed
The first trip for whole day was already on Monday. We went to National Park Ras Mohamed from where we took a boat and went to snorkelling to coral reefs!!!

The drive took us about 1 hour before we came to the first stop. We had than a dive and stayed in the water for nearly one hour.
There is not a work that could desribe the feelings and emotions when you see all those colourful fish :) We had under-water camera with us (the one for one use) and took photos which later turned out to be really good, esp. if you think it was the first time that we had it and work with it. I might scan some photos and post it here :)

We saw many wonderful coralas, clown-fish (if anyway was watching Nemo - that's the fish we saw:)), many other colourful fish for which I don't know the names and we also saw BARACUDA fish which is VERY agressive fish :s Even more agressive than sharks! :s

We stopped and waited for the fish to swim away, coz' if the fish would saw us, there would be high chances to get some serious injuries. And who wants to take a risk?
After first dive, we returned back to ship and drove on. It took us another hour to arrive to other spot and between both places we had lunch.

You can see for the photo the food we had! There was much more to chose from, but that was on my plate :)

The Egyption people are great cooks! They really cook well, esp. cakes and other sweets :)


After we ate we stopped at the sand island and when I was that was like I was in heaven! You know when you are watching TV and see all those GREAT sandy islands for which you can only dream about....well, this island was like that!!! Like in heaven!


We spent some time there to enjoy the moments, took some photos, swim around a little and returned back to the ship!
The last stop was another coral reef and there we saw plenty of fish as well. We also saw blue-dotted sting-ray :) That is one beautiful animal!!! Really great!
The time flew with speed of light and sadly at 6pm we came back to the port :( and our one day trip was over! I could do that over and over again and would never get sick of it :)

It was a GREAT day and I only wish it would never end and perhaps to be more in the water!
Miha and I said that if for nothing else, we shall return to Ras Mohamed coz' of snorkelling :)


The rest of the evening we spent in the swimming pool in hotel and soon after dinner we went to bed, coz' on Tuesday we had to wake up at 1am - we were off to Cairo - the capital of Egypt!
