Room 115, New Sphinx Resort, P.O. Box 11, Dahab, South Sinai, Egypt. CDN$16.36 per person per night. March 24, 2008. Note: Those (very) faint mountains on the horizon are across the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea) in Saudi Arabia. The Red Sea can be as calm as a lake … and the snorkelling is excellent. I think that we will stay here awhile … maybe 10 days. This is sunrise.
