Chilling out in the sun.

Another day of coping with the sunshine and relaxing by the pool, although, having said that we had a nice long walk before breakfast right along the promenade as far as we could, massive building projects taking place and hotels springing up in the desert.

Two swimming pools here, one nice and heated, the other, nearly deserted, is massive, but heart stopping if you jump in, need first aiders to get me out.

Coral Sea Resort is 99% British occupancy, used by Thomas Cook, First Choice, etc., the pool areas, gardens, and beach are very good. The bay is extremely shallow and you can wade out knee deep for a good hundred yards or so.
Facilities are actually quite good, a lovely gym, nice spa, hairdresses, beauty salon, etc - animation staff excellent who come and talk to you trying to get everyone involved in the activities - we even have the lovely Samantha from Bishopriggs - she has a bit of a problem as quite a few of the English guests cannot understand her accent when she runs the quiz in the afternoon.

Have not even started taking photos yet, got to get into the mood.

BUT, my "Kindle book" is a godsend, best present I got at Xmas from RGB and Go Jo - churning m,y way through the books I looded up before we left.

So up with the sun in the morning - tomorrow is another day.
