Sinai peninsula

On the last bit of the trip we took a early morning flight from Cairo to Dahab which is on the Sinia peninsula that’s right smack bam in the middle of the Red Sea.

The next few days we went diving had some of the best seafood ever and spent the time enjoying the ocean and the weather.

The highlight was hiking up mount Sinai (the mountain Moses reportedly received the 10 commandment’s) in the middle of the night.
We then rented mattresses and slept on a ledge overlooking the mountains (even though it was so cold we were wrapped up like burritos) .
The sunrise was absolutely breathtaking.

As soon as we woke up and enjoyed the sights we hiked back down and visited the monastery (which was build by a Roman emperor) to see the original burning bush.

This was such an amazing trip.Read more
