Mediterranean Blue

July 1996 -- The Mediterranean coast of Egypt extends from the western end of the Nile Delta to the border with Libya.  When I went in 1996, the beaches were largely unspoiled. The sand was white. The water was an incredible blue. We drove from Alexandria to Marsa Matrouh. We passed El Alamein on the way. I wished we would have had time to stop. While I've never really been a beach person, I could be if I'd lived near beaches like these. Definitely the prettiest beaches (and water) I've ever seen. Even the Caribbean doesn't compare.

No greater place to ponder the meaning of life
