Joyeux Noël
This is the view down into the centre of the village from next to our apartment, what you see is pretty much it, its a fairly small place, you can just see the gondola up to the slopes at the far end.....and there is a big mountain on the skyline I promise but the weather is a little bit snowy for christmas and Im not complaining....
Hurghada, Egypt - Dec 09
Spent most of the time working on my tan beachside, snorkling off the pier *Red Sea coral reef is just like floating in a massive tropical fish tank* , playing beach volleyball and generally eating and drinking too much...
There was of course the obligatory trip into the desert and camel riding too...
Attempted shopping at the local stores down the road, constant hassling from store owners a bit much and am not very good at the bartering, my attention span is far too short but all in all a great dose of sunshine before another winter in the snow...
