Aqaba

We spent our last few days together in the relatively relaxed city of Aqaba drinking at the local mock-English pub and doing four fabulous dives. The diving there is great - the dive sites only take a few minutes to drive to and are all shore dives which are much, much more relaxing (these were my first shore dives and I loved missing out on all the anxiety of the last minute rush that always happens on boat dives). The water was lovely and warm, the coral was bright and beautiful, the fish were great and we saw our first underwater tank! It was wonderful to get back into diving again and both Phil and I are really looking forward to jumping back in the water in Egypt when we meet up with Si.

We had a fabulous time with James and are missing him loads!!
