Sinai

... where everyone is called Mohammed, even the women!

With friends and Bedouin children on the way to the mountain

What laziness! (I had a good excuse though - my ankle was the size of a grapefruit)

After a grueling walk to the top everyone was exhausted (especially my camel)
 
Sunrise from the top of the mountain after an unexpected overnight stay at the top thanks to a bad case of Gardia infection,
a bug that makes you feel like you've eaten 4,900 litres of vindaloo.

Ali (a Bedouin desert guide) and his unleaded camel

My friend the truck driver. His name is very unusual in this part of the world. Can you guess it?
Mohammed.

A very unconvincing solo-man impersonation

The Desert of Sinai - barren and beautiful
