When does an adventure begin? It is always hard to find a point to identify as the beginning. What you end up with is a starting point that you are comfortable with. A place that seems befitting to be called a start rather than the start. So my arrival at Sharm el Sheikh is a starting point for this series of adventures. As a previous post relates, I had added an additional stop to my Egypt trip so as to take in a performance by the beautiful Kim Wilde at a light switching on event.
The show was scheduled to take place at a place called Soho Square. My hotel was some 30 minutes from that place and as I travelled to that location I noticed a poster board. It proclaimed that Bonnie Tyler would be performing at the evening show.
What! Seriously!
I was disappointed. Although I don’t mind Bonnie Tyler as a replacement, I was so expecting Kim! Bugger! Well, since I was here I might as well enjoy the show, right? Bonnie performed for an hour, belting out new and old favourites. A dance worthy show. I returned to my hotel and wondered whether this change to expectation was of some notable significance. The dowsing rods said yes and I presumed the message was simple…
Expect what is not expected.
I am writing this after my return from the Land of the Sun and can confirm that it went amazingly off plan. Watch this place for an amazing Arabian adventure!
