Egypt - Nuweiba and camel trekking

We leave Jordan in Aqaba and take the ferry to Nuweiba, Egypt.
On the road from the port to Nuweiba we encounter head wind for the first time. The 8 km seem to take an eternity and we arrive at Fayrouze Camp in the dark. Chantal "loves"it!
Our butts need some recovery from the cycling from Amman to Aqaba, so.... we go on a camel trek (which in the end will - for some of us - not have been so much of a recovery to their butt!).
2 days off the road, but not so much off civilization - we enjoy it very much! Bread made in the sand and fire, Eggplant with Tahina and lemon (becomes our favorite starter!), million star hotel (when there is no moon!), and, and, and...

chill out at "The Little Prince Coffee Shop"

land between sea and desert
