Summing it all up.
 


Some more tanning and a trip to the old market for some shopping and upload of the presentation.

To the left, the inviting ice cold pool of Grand Oasis hotel.

Martin having some junk food. Martin stripped off the chips and buns to minimize the calorie intake.

Outdoor chef in action on the 2nd floor.

The nice, fresh raw material to make the pizzas.

Martin giving a helping hand to make a pizza. Not very successful.

The lovely ice cold pool is very tempting, but it freezes your nuts off.

Martin's taxi pool next to the hotel.

The mountains of the Sinai in the distance.

A lone horse in the middle of nowhere where they are building another hotel that will be half empty.

Omar, Martin's cab driver from Cairo where he has a wife and 3 sons.

The new main mosque in the middle of Sharm El Sheik.

The Hosni Mubarak café where Martin used to have a quick beer.

After a rainfall the streets are full of water. No sewage system that works.

So they call in a truck to suck it up.

The backstreets of the old market where the Internet café is.

Here it is. And it worked for uploading pictures to the Internet.

The manager of the well functioning Internet café was a happy fellow and found Martin's credit card when he went to the toilet.

Arafat is pouring Martin's beer. The cops must not see that they are selling beers in bottles.

Arafat is hiring water pipes to passing customers.  

The next day, Monday April 6th, it was Jorunn's birthday and the last day in Egypt for now.
