Description
After more than a week of traveling through Egypt, I found myself on a chilly morning standing on a beautiful beach. It was one of the highlights of the trip as much for my time just enjoying a little slice of paradise as anything. It certainly wasn't my image of the Sinai Peninsula or of the well-known red sea, but it was so isolated, so quiet in Nuweiba, that it was like finding one of those desert islands you read about.
On that first morning on the Red Sea, it was me and the waves observing the sun rise over Saudi Arabia in the distance. And to me, this morning was off the charts beautiful. The colors on the horizon were an insane mixture of gold and pink hues rising into a blue sky. The Red Sea itself practically seemed to be alive with the colors reflected on its surface. I will always be glad I got up for that sunrise as the one the next day was a story of overcast gray. I'm so glad I didn't miss one of the best sunrises of my journey through Egypt!
