March 21st is my new year and I definitely had a good day.
In the morning we took a tour of the monastery which is at the bottom of Mt. Sinai. We saw the famous burning bush and a church where all the bones of past pastors remained. Kind of chilling...
Then we drove to Nuweiba and checked in to the Eliaria Hotel Resort right on the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea). Although it was a port city, there really wasn’t anywhere else to go. We arrived at around 1 and were offered an all inclusive package for $25 that included lunch, dinner, and all the drinks you wanted until 11pm. So of course, we bought the deal, and we took full advantage.
After lunch we spent most of the afternoon on the beach, drinking, lying about, chatting, sun tanning, and playing beach volleyball.
The coolest part about this town was that when standing on the shore you could see Saudi Arabia and Jordan.
