The enormous mass that you see above forms part of the “colored canyon” path that we took in the Red Sea. I don’t know if this is the real name or not, it seemed to be one of the canyons typical of the far west, like those that you can find in America.
During the journey we passed through large areas in which you could admire the walls that were streaked with a thousand shades of red-orange-brown-yellow, in narrow passages like those represented in the photo above. There was a huge stone, I don’t know if it was placed there on purpose or if it’s the result of an earthquake or some other natural cataclysm, which was blocking the path!
The only way of passing it is by going under or by jumping over it (but that’s quite risky). However, in order to go under it you can’t be too fat… because you really pass by the skin of your teeth! Which is why I asked myself what would’ve happened if there had been an overweight person in our group…
