beach!

Last weekend we went with some of the teachers from Rachel's school to Ain Sukhna, the nearest beach on the Red Sea. The name means hot spring, though we could not confirm from anyone if there still exists a hot spring there. The good news is that the drive isn't very long. The bad news is that it's fairly close to Suez, so there were a lot of shipping boats passing by in the distance. That didn't prevent us from seeing a school of dolphins, though. Sadly we didn't get a chance to take any pictures of the dolphins.
