Hell Boat

I don't often complain, but fuck me, this boat trip sucked. The boat that I speak of travels from Aqaba, Jordan to Nuweiba, Egypt each day sometime in the middle of the day, God willing. From the start of my day, until I arrived at my hotel, it took 12 fucking hours to get where I needed to go. Sure this included the taxi ride from Petra to Aqaba {2 hours}, the Taxi from Nuweiba to Sharm el Sheik {2.5 hours}. Lonely Planet can kiss my ass on their information. Oh, and I wasn't the only poor bastard that felt this way. I spoke to several other English speaking individuals and couples, who have the same kind words for our friends at The Planet.

My advice, take the car back to Amman, Jordan and fly back to where you need to go. Don't waste you time "getting into the spirit of travel".
