I have spent a wonderful time away in a place I felt oddly at home. Considering that I am a horticulture student (aka gardens; plants; green things!), Egypt was not naturally my first choice as a destination. The occasional palm tree or acacia could be seen outside the resorts, but I did not want to come away.
The weather was perfect. Enough sunshine to lift the spirit, enough breeze to take the heat away.
Nice food, friendly people, good times.
Blue skies, blue seas, red mountains, colourful fish and corals... I loved every moment I spent there. (Well, most...)
I have never felt bad about coming home from a holiday destination before, but I actually felt really tearful to be leaving. I don't understand why, but I know I shall return.
