Beach trip to the Red Sea

Today (Thursday) is the beginning of the weekend here- so we visited the sea. First we stopped by Burger King and Starbucks, then went picnicking on the coast. The area we went to was the public beach, which once had sand, but now has pavement, parking, and a fence. (The sandy, swimming areas are at a different part of the coast). It was so nice having a picnic at sunset! We even saw crabs walking along! We left at prayer time-so I snuck a photo of the men praying across the street.
