Here are some highlights of our trip to Sharm el Sheikh in the Sinai peninsula and our boat trip on the Red Sea
Beautiful view of the Red Sea from our hotel room at the Iberetol Palace (which wasn't quite a palace)

Call to Prayer - Muslims pray 5 times a day. To gather everyone at the same time there is a "call to prayer" announcement (song) that goes out over the airwaves and loud speakers, radios, etc. Even our boat in the Red Sea played the song as it came over the maritime radio. When this happens, men come running. I don't know what the woman do though....
Sean and Amy get ready to snorkel on the Red Sea. Amy is also hoping to save a baby whale.... but that never happened.
Kristie, Sean and Amy snorkeling in the coral reefs of the Red Sea, just off the southern coast of the Sinai peninsula.
Our guide Nader, who I affectionately dubbed Ralph.
