Two-part journal account re visiting Cairo and then taking a coach journey from Cairo to Luxor along the Red Sea. "The next morning we left and travelled for another 140km, where we set up camp on the beach front. The view was obviously breathtaking, but the weather stopped everybody from taking a dip in the sea. Absoloutely no civilisation existed within 140 km of our camp. We were all alone in the desert, with intense police protection for a reason thats unknown to me but still baffles me. The night was lit up by the moon and the milky way. One thing I can can say about the desert: theres no civilisation, but there's definately alot of wild animals that make wierd and funny noises during the night."
