Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt – Xperience Sea Breeze Resort, Shark’s Bay – Poolside Kinda Day

Windy Morning

With the recent terrorist bombing out of Sharm El_Sheikh’s International Airport, there were very few people at this resort. We were told by the taxi driver who drove us from the airport that Xperience Sea Breeze Resort was one of the two operating resorts in Sharm El-Sheikh.

The ghost town 5 Star resort offered a rare bit of peace, but was operating on minimal staff as well as not offering all services that could be available.

The blustery morning winds decided it would be a poolside kinda day.

The one pool staff member tried to rally the troops for fun, gathering us together in the water. Unfortunately, with such little people, the energy quickly fizzled.

When we returned to our rooms later in the day, we had these fun elephant towels on our bed!
