Boring sand and empty field. More sand.

We woke up with the ring of the wind chimes. Looking out of the window it became clear that the noise wasn’t caused by wind chimes but by metal that rattled on the next property because of the huge wind. I guess, the sun was rising as well, but with all the haze and sand, you couldn’t see it. We went for breakfast and retired to our balcony that was the least windy place in the all resort. At 10:30am I made an attempt to go for a run, but running against such a wind was like running on a treadmill - you keep running, but won’t get any further. With that minor exception that every few steps sand hit bare legs and eyes. I turned around and ran back to the resort. Meanwhile the cleaning guy had created scorpion, scarabeus or two-tailed crocodile from towels, bottle caps and remote on my bed.

Before lunch I jumped in the sea again, which had even bigger variety of colourful fish than last time. Each bigger and braver than other.

In the afternoon we walked to Mango Market again to buy some KitKat. On the way there we discovered a potato field in our resort and apparently some guests can enjoy the beautiful organic view from their balconies. We decided to take the path next to the field to see, if we can exit that way as well. We ended up by a fence with a clear feeling that it’s not a way out. Before we managed to turn around and start walking back, there was an Omar standing right behind us and clearly invading our private space. He pointed to the substation that was the reason for us not being able to further and told us that he works there. He also offered to show us his work place. We decided to exit through the usual main gate. First time this all week a security guy was on duty who asked our room number and where we’re from. We instantly felt how life got so much more safe in the resort.

Due to the heavy wind they cancelled the dinner grill outside, but at least they had hummus on the menu again, and without considering any other guests, we ate most of it.
