Ras Mohammed national park is located in the Gulf of Aqaba on the Red Sea, you can visit by land or water from Sharm el Sheikh. A return cab cost about £20, which was a bargain considering it was about an hour each way! There are many beaches to chose from, from the main beach you swim out in over a very shallow shelf from the bay and then the reef just drops away into oblivion, it's breathtaking. Manta rays and sharks inhabit the area along with the more common reef dwellers; conga eels, surgeon fish, hatchet fish, puffer fish, etc. all in large numbers with the grand backdrop of a reef falling away as far as the eye can see. A must for both hardcore and casual divers!

The Atomium is one of the most unusual buildings I have ever seen. It's a 100+ metre tall model of an iron crystal. Each 'iron atom' is a room and the 'bonds' contain escalators and stairs so you can travel between them, and enjoy the views. For novelty value this building gets 10 out of 10! When I visited it was being renovated but I believe the original contents of the museum are back in place now.

Carnival weekend is one I really look forward to on the London calendar, (late august). Despite the incredible numbers of people shoehorned into the streets the atmosphere is fun loving and full of smiles. The main attraction is the parade which is as colourful and musical as you'd imagine - those with sensitive ears be warned, it is LOUD! Inside the ring formed by the parade route there is plenty to do and see with music stands and street sellers a plenty. Dancing in the street and the smell of "d erb" abounds without so much as a raised eyebrow from the local constabulary! Jerk chicken, rice and peas, plantain, goat curry - all musts as far as I'm concerned. GO!
