A sort of relaxing period post arrival at the Movenpick is scheduled for the first night and for those who wish, a ship borne barbecue! The jetty for boarding the cutter is of the floating variety, and with mature trippers is trepidatious to say the least.
However, it is accomplished without mishap and we circle round the "Bay" taking in the fact that there are some 5 borders within eyesight. Jordan, Palestine, Israel, Egypt and Saudi Arabia and a Royal Palace. Drinks on-board, but none of us are going to end up 3 sheets to the wind as it is limited in quantity.
Back on dry land via the wobbly jetty and there is a lovely warmth to the short promenade back to the hotel which is only some 200 yards from the jetty.
It has been a divine start to this "Arabian" adventure !
