Birthday on the Beach

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting hues of orange and pink across the tranquil waters of Aqaba, Jordan, I found myself celebrating another year of life in the company of my wonderful wife, Debra. The venue for this special occasion was the luxurious Luxotel Resort, where incredible views, beachside serenity, and the making of memories blended to create the perfect birthday escape.


Nestled against the backdrop of the Red Sea, the Luxotel Resort is a great destination for any occasion. The anticipation of a birthday celebration in such a breathtaking setting added an extra layer of excitement. The promise of incredible views and the allure of beach time set the stage for a memorable day. As Debra stepped onto the resort grounds for the first time, the tranquil beauty of Aqaba surprised her. The gentle breeze carrying the scent of the sea, and the panoramic views of the Red Sea and Egypt created was breathtaking.



One of the highlights of the day was the blissful beach time we enjoyed at Luxotel. The pristine sands, kissed by the azure waters, offered a private oasis where time seemed to stand still. The waves and the warmth of the sun on our skin became the soundtrack to a celebration dedicated to relaxation and joy.


In the evenings the incredible views from the Luxotel Resort reached their crescendo. The changing hues of the sky mirrored the shifting emotions of the day, creating a visual symphony that heightened the sense of celebration. The resort's strategic location allowed us to witness the beauty of Aqaba and the mountains of Egypt in all its glory, providing a backdrop of awe-inspiring vistas.


Of course, the true gift of the day was celebrating with Debra, my partner in adventure and life. The shared laughter, quiet moments of reflection, and the joy of being together in such a luxurious setting added a layer of richness to the birthday celebration. It was a reminder that the most special moments are those shared with the ones we hold dear.


On the way back to NEOM we expereinced several special visits from camels along the road. This was Debra's first time to see a camel up so close just roaming. We get absolutely giddy everythime we see a camel and I hope we never lose that.
