it was a totally random choice from me, and a gamble, but it was good. similar place to turkey and egypt.
typical poor eastern/african country, but the hotel itself (4 star iberostar) was good standard, failry modern, well finished, big, good facilities, and good food.
downsides:
muslim country so no bacon and sausage with my eggs for breakfast!!! ahhhh
resort wasnt great without a big trek to the harbour, where its fairly run down and typical of that type of country.
sea swarming with jellyfish on rougher days
people are quite miserable, the odd blokes were a good laugh (seems women arent allowed to work there apart from cleaning, lol)
good points:
40 degrees pretty much allll the time. *** sahara innit
only 3 hours away
GMT time zone
sterling is strong there
they were mental for watersports
and like i say, the hotel is spot on really.
downer of the holiday, i did this to my watch:
i was walking by a bar and caught it on the corner of the marble top.
gutted.
heres a random pool shot for you:
thats a bit of a pita young karl!
i take it you never bought that off a "looky looky" man off the beach then you flash git?
you could always claim off your holiday insurance dude! :thumbsup:
pool looks nice, glad you had a good time, if you dont count the lack of bacon or watch issue!
anywhere is better than blighty i reckon!
