Hurghada

The Marina with loads of potential, but not enough people (they are in all the grand, and grander resorts, and the locals ar enpot allowed entrance. local kebab shop. mmmmm, good food and actually one of a few times Tittens belly didnt go bad after a meal.

Hurghada is a messy chartered city without too much planning. Places that could have been great just lost something. The big resorts is taking over the place and most egyptens go here to work to get some money from the tourists and send them back home. So do russian woman, that sell something that is not legal in norway anymore as from yesterday. Even with the negativ start it still has some nice spots.

A tip if you go to Hurghada, is to eat at some "dirty" local kebab places where the food tast excellent and go to old Hurghada for a walk. It is not nepal, or iran or india but it atleast give a small picture of how people live in these countries, still the tourists are too close.
