Our new friends, the Samson family, were also in Eilat, staying at Kibbutz Eilot just outside of the town. They came into Eilat and we had a great day together. We started off on the beach and swimming in the Red Sea, a very calm sea and quite warm for this time of the year and also a lot more buoyant than expected. Not quite the Dead Sea sort of buoyancy but an easier float than most oceans. Then, children armed with ice creams, we spent a few hours at the hotel's three swimming pools, one each for toddlers and children and a beautiful big pool for everyone else.
After a lot of lounging around we went walking along the promenade and then for a late lunch, it was dark by the time the Samson's caught a taxi back to their Kibbutz.
We finished the great day with more relaxing and later a desert and coffee instead of supper.
