Hurghada - Land of Russians and loud beach music
We departed Luxor in our mini van for our longest car journey - 5 hours - to the resort town of Hurghada. Dan and I spent out time watching the final episodes of The Killing II least not to prevent me from watching the terrifying driving. I figured it was better to go into that head-on collision with blissful ignorance. We stopped at an Egyptian equivalent of Welcome Break but much smaller. When buying some coffee, the shopkeeper took a shine to me offering me free ...
