2015/12/18-19 糊疙瘩(紅海度假村)
這兩天就是瞎混了,吃喝飽了去曬太陽,曬夠了就去睡,起來再吃喝,重複一遍!本來還想到酒店外面去溜達溜達,結果酒店裡太舒服了所有俺們幾乎木有踏出酒店範圍一步。兩天基本上都是早上起來吃早飯,之後到沙灘上巡視一圈,回房間查查郵件,換了衣服就到沙灘上去消磨時光。酒店裡還雇了幾個俄羅斯 美女給客人們組織活動,沙灘排球啊,健身操,瑜伽,乒乓球什麼的。問到俺們時,俺們跟她說其他活動俺們回家都可以做,這陽光,溫度和沙灘回家不容易弄,還是呆在沙灘上比較物有所值。估計原來俄羅斯 客人很多,現在這大白天的沙灘上沒幾家人。
酒店設施很齊全,深潛,浮淺,按摩,餐廳,酒吧一應俱全。是個散心的好去處。紅海 的水也是清澈碧藍,一看就讓人心廣神台!
百度百科:赫爾格達
赫爾格達[1]{ } 不愧是大自然精美的饋贈。與之相伴的紅海,更增加了她的魅力,燦爛的陽光,細軟的沙灘,翠綠的椰棗樹,墨藍色的海水等,構成了這裡得天獨厚的旅遊資源,每年吸引著數百萬世界各地的遊客前來觀光。對埃及人和來自世界各地熱愛陽光、大海和潛水的遊客來說,赫爾格達毫無疑問是最理想的旅遊度假勝地。
赫爾格達整個城市沿著紅海呈現狹長的一條,這裡的休閑渡假酒店,無論是三星還是五星都大致一樣,最前面是酒店大堂,然後是游泳池、體閑場地、自助餐廳,緊接著是花叢綠樹中建設不超過五層的客房,最後面就是酒店的精華:獨享的紅海海濱。紅海的顏色顯得很深,比碧藍還要深,海水像潑墨的油畫透出無窮誘人的魅力。賓館海濱沙灘上鋪滿了休閑的床鋪,遮陽的大傘林立,遊客可以在這裡優閑地看書、發獃或者閉目養神。
綿延數十公里的海岸線,清澈的海水、柔軟的沙灘和溫暖的陽光、全年宜人的氣候使這裡成為世界上最著名的旅遊度假勝地和水上運動國際中心。騎駱駝探訪沙漠人家貝都因人部落、自駕沙漠四輪摩托車也是讓遊客充滿期待的項目。
赫爾格達擁有許多家大型購物中心,選幾件用知名的埃及棉(又稱長絨棉)縫製的衣服也是不錯的選擇。這裡的美味海鮮大餐是你不容錯過的,在當地很有特色的市集你還能品嘗到非常傳統的埃及食品。同時,全球的美食你都能在當地許多酒店的餐廳里找到。

Travel diary day eight/nine 12/18-19
nothing specific to mention about these two days, staying at a nice hotel and relaxing, that's all.
the temperatures in the morning and night were a bit on the chill side especially when it was a bit windy. but during the day with the sun shine it was perfect beach weather. I wouldn't want it any hotter. the hotel was so adequate that we didn't have much of a desire to venture out. I did for one time mention that we should go out to investigate the local places, but I was totally ignored by the two girls.
not many people staying at the hotel, the small beach had plenty lounge chairs and they were barely filled during the day. again, it's really sad to see such a nice hotel going empty, but it was a good deal for us, no need to fight with other guests for spaces.
the hotel employed some Russian girls as activities organizers, guess they were there for the Russian tourists to begin with, we were asked a few times during the day to join the fun: ping-pong, stretching, beach volley ball, etc. we told them that we could do all the activities back home but we wouldn't have a beach with the sun to lie down back home, we had to stick with what was worth more for us... between sun bathing and swimming I spent time building mimic giza pyramids on the beach with my 4 yearold. we did a total of three sets complete with the sphinx. and there were still standing by the time we left - a testament of how few people were there.
two happy days of relaxation from our busy sightseeing itinerary were just wonderful for us. we were to fly back to cairo early morning on 12/20 to do more sightseeing. I asked the hotel about a taxi ride to the airport and was told that it was going to be 90 egp by a hotel limousine and a local taxi would run 60 egp through the hotel. so I declined the hotel help, went out on the street and found a taxi waiting for business. upon inquiring about a ride to the airport early next morning he quoted 60 egp and after one round of negotiation he agreed to 45 egp. what was that. didn't even take down his license plate number. my wife only remembered that there was a number, 13790, printed on his left rear passenger door.
he showed up the next day right on the agreed time and we were at the airport in about 20 minutes - he wasn't driving very fast. there were just one checkup before entering the airport. inside the airport there were three security screenings, once before check-in, once before waiting area, and once before boarding. shoes have to be removed. everything worked out great for us so far! and we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Egypt!
