Going On Holiday After Years! Egypt 2015 ❤️
Saturday, November 07, 2015
It's literally been over 2 months or so since I last blogged on
here which is insane! I am seriously slacking big time. Truth is I just haven't
felt motivated enough to blog & kind of just preferred posting on Instagram
because as you know that is a lot more easier but finally now feel like doing a
new post & feeling motivated so I'm back…for now anyway haha! I may not
post regularly but I will try to post at least every month!
So of course since it’s been a while I thought I would come back
with a blog post just letting you guys know what I've been up too recently.
If you didn't already know, I went on
holiday to the lovely city of Sharm El Sheikh which is in Egypt about 2 weeks
ago.
The country itself is stunning with
beautiful buildings around. I haven't been on a holiday for over 5 years now so
as you can imagine I was super excited. I had the best freakin’ time ever even
though I went for a very short amount of time.
I went with my sisters so it was lovely just getting to spend some
quality time together with each other seeing as on a usual day I’m always at
college and they are at work and I get home late so we don’t really get to
spend much time together and talk. ❤

Whilst we were there we obviously did
some excursions which were great and so much fun to do! I've never done quad biking but I
always hear people saying that its lots of fun so I obviously had to give it a shot and see how it was. I must say it was totally worth it and it was amazing. At first
it was quiet scary because it looked hard to control but there's only really a
gas button and a break button so nothing complex. Once I got used to it, it was
pretty easy and simple. It felt amazing just zooming across the soft sand and
being able to feel the warm breeze brushing past you. I hated going past the
humps and bumps but other than that I had the best time ever on the quad bikes!

My coloured pins ruined this shot! I clearly couldn't find my black hijab pins! Ahh the struggles! |
Another thing I did was parasailing. If you don't really know what that is it is basically "gliding through the air wearing an open parachute while being towed by a motor boat." (Just got the definition of google because google explains it better then I probably would :P) But hopefully the pictures will give you some sort of idea of how it was. Being in the air and seeing the views from above was just amazingly beautiful. It was so calm and enjoyable at the same time. It was like slowly flying through the air with a parachute behind you!
My favourite would have to be the tube ride. Ohgosh it was
nothing as I expected. I literally couldn't stop laughing the whole time. I was
laughing so hard that I ended up crying! I can’t remember the last time I
laughed that hard! There are 2 handles on the side which you have to hold on to
and without realising I let go of both whilst wiping away my tears and almost fell out of the tube and in
to the water! My sister’s just couldn’t stop laughing at me! Not only that, the
camera man had caught it all on camera so was so cringy but funny watching it
back!
The tube ride itself
was definitely thrilling and exhilarating with the light breeze and
the odd splash of water from the fresh blue ocean! I
would definitely go on it again but this time make sure not to
let go of the handles!

Dont have many decent pictures because all of them consist of funny faces because I was just laughing way to much! |
The
last excursion we did was going to a Dolphin Show. Now this might sound a bit
boring but it was actually the total opposite. Dolphins really are beautiful intelligent
and playful animals. The show consisted of 2 workers who are trained to work
with the dolphins to entertain the audience. They perform a number of amazing
tricks along with some singing and even as far as painting! It was definitely
entertaining to watch!
Thats about all the excursions we packed in during our stay there. In the
evenings we went out because the weather was a lot more cooler and we did
some shopping in the well known mall known as 'Naama Bay'. Its full of shops
but the only thing is you have to do a lot of haggling to get cheaper deals!
We also did a few other things during the evenings. At the top floor of our hotel it was all open and in the evenings they used to have music playing and you could do shisha if you wanted too. They also made fresh drinks which we got for free as we were all inclusive and they tasted great. The atmosphere was buzzing up there and was lots of fun!
