Diving

Today Nigel and I did our first dive in the Red Sea! We went to a site called the Islands and saw lots of fishes. The owner of our hotel also owns the dive company so we talked to him for awhile and Nigel may have a job lined up with them. Basically we have to pay to go diving at all of the sights with different companies and learn them and then get freelance work from all of the companies. It's all very relaxed. Today's dive with equipment included only cost around $20.
I also had another first in Egypt and drank the tea. They are obsessed with their tea over here! They spend hours in the ashwahs just drinking hot tea and smoking sheesas which are like big hookah pipes. None of the restaurants serve alcohol and there are hardly any bars (the exception being here in Dahab). So Nigel and I haven't had a drink in a month! Hard to believe, I know. Tomorrow we are going on a few more dives :)
