So we left our guest to explore Dubai for a week while we went to work!!!
A good move so it would seem, as he gave us the low down on the tourist spots that we can only wish we had the energy after work to explore!
The weather started to cool down.......that is probably why after swimming sometime on Tues eve....Sam caught a Stinking Lousey Cold!!!! could even be on a par with MAN FLU!!!
Anyway with the weekend fast approaching and a guest to keep entertained....no time for moping....had to work through it!
and so to Fri 24th Nov.......Morning spent by the pool....WELL......we just had to top up the TAN!Sam organized with a tour firm to go on a desert safari in the afternoon.......15:00 Jaffa picked us up from the apartment in his Toyota Landcruiser......you know it was gonna be good when you spot the rollcage bars bolted to the chassis!!!!!! OH YEAH! drove out to the deep desert for some thrills and spills!!! will try and upload a video.......was a petrol heads dream!!!! the drivers started to let some air out the tyres. i guess that helps with grip! wish i could have had a go at driving!!!!! the rollercoaster sand dune drive was finished off watching the sun set in the desert....HOW ROMANTIC! near some stinky camels!!!! then to a BBQ desert style at a camp with sheesha and a belly dancer! COOL!
Saturday was rather more relaxed.....a nice long drive to Abu Dhabi!!!! the capital of the UAE...much more built up than Dubai! the road was amazing...the heat haze was such that you couldnt see where the sky ended and the road began!!! i have never driven on such a straight road in my life! while Steve and i were wandering the streets of A.D CJD was wandering Dubai....checking out the touristy parts and checked out another mall. much shopping to be done here!
Sunday was spent checking out a little tourist market....much tat bought for crimbo.....has to be done....those ickle carved camels are soooooo sweet hahahahahaha
but on emerging the weather had well an truely changed...WOULD YOU ADM AND EVE IT......RAIN!!!!!!! and lots of it....
the roads become a play ground for drivers of big 4x4 power machines.....fishtailing down the road with no sense of danger!!! scarey! so to avoid any chance of an accident, we went to the cinema to check out the latest 007 offering....and it was PRETTY GOOD!!!! back to work monday!!! roll on the next weekend!!!!!
