Today was our last full day in Dahab :( The last to evenings we went to 2 more seafood restaurants just like the one from the first night. The waterfront of Dahab is lined with these cute places. Each one has a bit different character, but they are all filled with amazing food, friendly servers, big comfy cusions, candlelight, fires, and of course... cats. Last night each of our entrees came with a tiny candle on the plate made out of wax and an onion!
I like the markets here better than in Aswan because we don't get hassled as much... or at least maybe I'm just getting used to it and I know how to deal with it now.
Two nights ago, one of my roomies got extremely sick and Hamada insisted that we call her a doctor. He said the best doctors in the country are in Dahab, not Cairo. The Doc actually came to our hotel room because she was throwing up every 15 min. I felt so bad for her. He actually had to start an IV drip IN the hotel room. She is much better now, although we were all quite worried at the time. We're not sure if it was the water, a stomach bug, or food poisoning.
Today we all spent the day working on our tans. We are currently in town about to go shopping for take out. It's just us girls out now, the boys are back at the hotel building a bonfire on the beach.
Side note: Egyptians are beyond OBSESSED with Celine Dion! I have heard more Celine in the last 2 weeks than anyone should ever be legally allowed to listen to in a lifetime! The power of loooooove!!!!

Uhhhhhhhhh -- scary deal w/ that roomie, huh?!? Man - that would be scary. Let's hope that's the last of that on your trip, eh? And that Celine Dion bit is a trip. That's too much. Looked at all of your FB pics too. Very cool -- glad you are well.
