I know I haven't been providing any pictures for you guys, but here's a great picture of the Sharm airport, and the surrounding area. It was very rocky and mountainous all around where I was, but not right by the water obviously. It's interesting to see how it is basically desert and rocky wilderness, except right next to the water where the resorts are. This is probably not far from where the Children of Israel were wandering in the desert for 40 years...unless I'm wrong :-/
