Sleep, eat, talk, walk, swim...the best formula for a great vacation!

We had 3 days off work this week so a few close friends and I went to ain sokhna for the full 3 days. All we wanted to do was talk, walk, TOTALLY relax, cook our own food, and just hang out...we neither wanted to party, nor to socialize, nor to do anything too energetic...it was freakingly AWESOME! Lina, Askoura, Tarek and I took the car sunday morning and drove to Sokhna, getting lost a few times on the way. Once we arrived we relaxed for a while then went to the beach for like an hour...we were brave enough to jump into the sea while the sun was setting! It was cold but sooo nice. Then we spent our evening shopping for food, cooking the food, drinking tea in the balcony, playing cards, and just talking. We stayed doing that till 4 am and we were planning to do it all over again the next day! So we reluctantly go to sleep but wake up super early to again be lazy! We were up at 9 but got to the beach at maybe 1pm! We swam again...thanks boys for staying in with me as long as you did. You made the fish very happy and content! Then we slept in the sun and went back to the chalet to meet the sweethearts Martha and Maggie!! We went for a long walk, sat on the beach till they kicked us out, then cooked dinner. Then began the game of scrabble, the rounds of tea, and the half asleep half awake conversations till 5 am this time! The next day we went to the beach very late yet again then had to run home pack and have lunch. It was over way way way too soon! I loved every minute of it. I love hanging out with people whom I absolutely adore! We could be sitting staring at each other and not talking but totally happy & content. Here's to another antakha trip with the same people very soon!
