Today was a busy day with snorkeling, watching a film on Arabia, dinner at an Indian restaurant, and a concert of classical music presented by KAUST and visiting German musicians.
"The BEST snorkeling ever" says Kelly. The boat, the food, the people, the water temperature, the water clarity, the sunning. Put it all together and you have one more unforgettable day in Saudi Arabia.
We left the harbor promptly at 9 (an 8 minute walk from Kyle and Bridgette's apartment). Once on board we enjoyed coffee, tea, and pastries while we navigated the channels around KAUST past the coast guard sentry and over the Thuwal to register. Then out on the Red Sea to one of a thousand unspoiled reefs.

The four of us ventured out for about and hour or so taking in the sights and shooting lots of video and pictures.

We then move to another close by reef where Kyle and I headed out while the girls stripped down to their two piece suits to soak up the sun. Something they could not do on land. Our trip ended with a leisure return to KAUST enjoying drinks, sandwiches, and the sun. What a day.
