So it is now confirmed... I spoke to my parents this morning via skype and they have purchased a new home. They will be living in the same apartment complex as my Grand Mother, actually they will be neighbours!
It's too funny because they have so much stuff.... there is no way they could fit 1/3 of it in this newer smaller place, it's going to require some serious down-sizing.
How about this picture of me eh? I'm such a beach bum, I bought this shirt here and its great, nice and light, keeps the sun off your arms and stuff but is nice and cool.
There is this cute woman at the camp named Jen, she's an american from Alaska originally, but has been traveling around the world... Japan, Thailand, Egypt are a few of the longer stays.. Learned a bunch from her about getting a job teaching english in different countries. Right now she's studying for her divemaster course... Working at a place in Dahab but taking a break here.
Sadly, there was no camel ride today, I thought for sure they bedouins would show up again... they are walking up and down the beach almost everyday... just not today. I want to learn how to drive a camel.. It's like a horse for the most part, but you need to learn the up and down commands =) In Giza I only got towed around on a camel but I want to ride one down the beach myself, not have someone drag it by a rope.
Tomorrow I'm really going to get up early and watch the sunrise over the Red Sea... on the other side of the water there is Jordan and Saudi Arabia depending on where you are looking.
There is a french hippy at the camp too and he just sits, smokes weed, reads and sleeps... He is a cool guy though, plays the sax, but he is way too hippyish for me.
Anyways, Just uploading a few pictures, I'll be posting Sun Rise photos tomorrow for sure... really this time I will do it!

Hi Ken...still reading your "excellent" adventures. I noticed you posted this one on a Friday. Is not Fridays there like our Sundays here? That's probably why your Camel jockey wasn't there. I have a pen set for you and will be sending it to your folks soon. Will they have their mail forwarded? Have great day and your pics are awesome! Keep up the great posts! (Bruce D.)
