The other day at the beach

Jelly fish, beach at old market, sharm el sheikh
Crab, beach at old market, sharm el sheikh

While waiting for the glass bottom boat tour to start, I walked the beach a bit and saw the two fellows above.

I think the jelly fish was ready to die :(
He was just at the shore and not going anywhere.

The crab on the other hand was simply playing dead while another girl and I were happily snapping some shots ;)

The jellyfish needs water to survive. Unless the next wave came in time to save it, it was out of luck.

That crab is a cutie. Nice of him to pose for you.

The crab is showing off his left bicep. Right now he's telling other crabs about the women on the beach that couldn't stop staring or taking pictures. "You should have seen them," he says.
