(^44) The following morning, we didn’t defrost until midday and thus late when we
started up Mt Sinai. The walk up the mountain was beautiful, featuring stunning
scenery and views of the surrounding mountains. At the summit was a mosque,
still used by Muslims, as well as a Greek Orthodox chapel. After exploring, we
hurried down the mountain to join the others in the tent already warmed by the
fire.

Waking to ice on the tent indicated it time to seek warmer weather. Once again, it
was midday before getting underway and onto the east coast’s hilly road. Our late
start made for wild camping along the way, only reaching Dahab the following day.
