Life at the Chamber

It's cloudy today. No sun = no beach.

Well (*yawn*), at least I'm awake and can do some photo blogging. So here we go:-

Daddy Gecko (who I think is still not back..)


The worst of my mozzie bites (no thanks to Skyping JW outside on my 1st/ 2nd night when there was no Wi-Fi signal inside the accommo)



The Chamber = massive cargo containers welded together.


Inside the chamber: O2 and air cylinders with valves on the Left and the Chamber on the Right.


Sahara Secrets: Where we go for dinner with Dr Adel Mondays & Thursdays

Sahara Secrets is pretty cool. It's the cafe area at a dirt-bike track (one of the best in Egypt/ ?the World) which Dr Adel and his mate Iman rent out in the evenings so they have somewhere nice to eat and socialise. (Iman works as the accountant for Dr Adel at the new Sinai Clinic he is building and is also the "hobby chef" at Sahara Secrets.) There is a massive TV screen, so the evening goes a bit like this:- Dr Adel drinks coffee/ tea, smokes shisha, watches TV, eats, drinks more coffee/ tea, smokes more shisha, continues watching TV. Repeat. It's all rather sedate.. (But nice.)

The view from Sahara Secrets

I think the sun has actually re-appeared from behind its cloud. Oh well. It's too late to go now anyway!

  1. The view from Sahara Secrets is nice. Well, at least, it's not like "Edinburgh at night".
