Day 4 - Sharm El-'Shake'?

Upon arriving into town, we were hounded by taxi drivers at the front door of the bus. So, we ended up making a deal with one of them just to take us into town. Not having planned for a place to stay, we then had the task set upon us to find a hotel. At 7 am, the town was very silent. We hiked around for about 30 minutes when we came across a place I had seen on Hotels.com, the Sharm Cliff Resort. Supposed to be a 4* place, we haggled for a double room, with half board (breakfast and dinner), for $50 a night. They even had a private beach.

Well, after a non-sleeping bus ride, we took up the offer for breakfast then, we crashed for 6 hours. Upon awaking, we walked into town along the board walk. Then...all of a sudden... we saw it! It was like a neon angel, burning brightly through the haze of a catalytic convertor free country. "Hard Rock Cafe":http://www.hardrockcafe.com/locations/cafes/Cafes.aspx?Lc=SHAR.

Why is this so important? Two words. Burgers & Shakes. Seems trivial to you, but in the Czech Republic, neither exists in a good form. Sure, McDonald's is around in Prague, but can you call that a good burger. And, milkshakes in Europe tend to take on the form of, I kid you not, milk that has been 'shaked' (with a little flavoring). So, we hopped inside, got seated and treated ourselves to big burgers and thick creamy milkshakes (I had a regular hamburger with a strawberry shake).

'And the Lord saw that it was good.'

The remainder of the evening was spent roaming the boardwalk on the beach and looking in at the various resorts with their musical acts and fancy buffets going on.

Hey. Wit makes its own welcome, and levels all distinctions. No dignity, no learning, no force of character, can make any stand against good wit. Help me! Need information about: Anti asthma. I found only this - benadryl and pregnancy. Search drug information, interaction, images medical diagnosis. With the number set to rise, the promotion of allergy week is being. Thanks :rolleyes:.
