We’re making idle chatter with our hostess when a rather grumpy couple climb aboard the shuttle bus. An onslaught of arbitrary complaints follow in Dutch. We roll our eyes.

Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt
An Egyptian city, Sharm El Sheikh is located at the southern most tip of the Sinai Peninsula, which is on the coastal strip between the Red Sea and the beautiful Mount Sinai.
