Seaside Sunbathing in Aqaba

Since we had gotten shown the door quite early at Wadi Rum, we showed up at our next destination too early for check-in.  Thankfully, I had planned ahead and packed our swimsuits, sunscreen and coverups in a separate beach bag.  So we stored our luggage at our resort, changed into our suits and were lounging at the edge of the Red Sea by 9 am.  And that is where you would have found us (or in the pool) until dinner time.  We figured that we had walked, toured, climbed and hiked enough for the past few days.  It was time to just relax and enjoy the only seaside town in all of Jordan.  We thought about taking a boat tour.  We contemplated snorkeling.  But it all seemed like too much work.  We opted instead to just laze around.  Wise choice indeed!

She got out!

 Seaside lunch!

 And Ice Cream.

 A final jump in and swim back to our beach...

  

 And another day with another beautiful sunset was under our belts.  This was another first though as it is the first time I could watch the sun set over one country (Isreal) while standing in another (Jordan).
