Tourists in Eygpt Continue Diving, Despite Bodies

Tourists in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh have continued their diving holidays despite the plane crash into the Red Sea (sn reported).

Manager of one of the diving centres in Sharm el-Sheikh, Jusienka Leligdowicz, said: "We are fully booked today." Leligdowicz has found body parts near the crash site. She said: "I'm glad they shut Na'ama Bay. I don't want my clients to see that."

"This could happen anywhere. We're not put off. You have to carry on with life," said one British tourist, although he did add that he hoped not to find any body parts.

No sense in letting body parts ruin a perfectly good vacation.

Wouldn't stop me. I've snorkeled the Red Sea. You don't really need tanks. Pretty incredible.

If I've paid for it, I'm going to enjoy myself.

Body parts be damned.

"You don't really need tanks. "

Then where do you put the body parts you find?

Not only that, they had wallets and were wearing rings.

Oh, that's gross! I suppose they don't have to worry about the tourists' suing the resort operators for the psychological damage caused by diving with dismembered bodies ... but, yuck!

I don't blame them. If you have a two-week vacation and you've blown the family budget on a trip to the Red Sea, you can't be expected to put on a solemn face and twiddle your thumbs.

More than 25 years later my sister still has problems(afraid of the ocean, where I'll jump overboard 10 miles out) from the scene in Jaws when the head comes out of the boat. Of course she was 8 at the time, but I was only 9. ;-)

I think everyone should enjoy themselves in respect of all the French that went down, afterall, they were the ones who left their elderly to die in the heat rather than interupt their vacations this Summer.
