At 5:00 this morning, the captain managed to secure us s berth, so we didn't have to tender in after all. It was already 27 at 7:30 and hit 34 during the afternoon. There were a Tui and an Aida ship moored across the bay from is.
Today's excursion was to a hotel in Hurghada. It turned out to be the Hilton Long Beach. It was just another huge Egyptian resort hotel, like the ones I've stayed in, in other Red Sea resorts.
The wifi wasn't working, so I grabbed a cab and went to the Hard Rock Cafe. It was closed for another hour, so we went to a local coffee shop. I connected, but it was so slow. I didn't manage to upload any blogs or download emails. And I may have locked my Google account, to boot.
Back at the hotel, I laid on the beach, until lunchtime. Lunch was the usual Egyptian stuff, and I didn't eat too much. After that, I moved poolside and did the usual sunbathing thing. Despite the Internet hassles, I enjoyed the hotel.
Back on board, we won the cocktail of the day (again) in the Picture Quiz. We gave it away (again)! We also won the Syndicate Quiz tie break. The two ladies had the wind, as we'd completed our set the other day.

Jan I'm hoping that the two ladies who had the wind recovered!! I only hope that it wasn't the wine that set them off. Or was that a typo!!???
