Saturday 20th Jan. NEED TO HIT THE ROAD! Not been on a road trip for a while….so decided to drive up the west coast, well, actually we took the Emirates road up to the border with Oman at Ras Al Khaimah and turned round. We worked our way back along the coast road and found a lovely natural beach with turquoise sea and mountains in the distance. And did you know that Sand beach is useful for swimming??!!!!
The geologist in me tried to convert my peers into rock loving…….i managed to get them to look at the pebbles in detail, but something tells me they were looking at them because they had pretty white strips running through them! The walk along the beach was soooo warm…the sea even felt like it might be warming up a tad!!! Had a few drive bys by the locals who were obviously curious at our afternoon stroll, and saw a few guys playing cricket on the beach!. Jumped back in the car and headed to Dubai! And Sharjar doesn’t get any easier to navigate! NO SIGNS, it is a maze…we really don’t know how we got out of there but CJD is the queen at making up her own additional lanes when we are stuck in traffic!!!! It worked…we weaved our way into Dubai and headed to Karama….Perusing the junk and fake goods, again we were greeted by ADSA price and a new one for our visit……….’Cheaper than Primark” honestly I nearly showered him in pepsi it made me laugh so much!!!

It is now that the true extent of the obsession we have for the Mosque alarm clock becomes evident. Can every one guess what their pressie is gonna be!!!! they are ACE! cant even begin to imagine how loud all 19 would have been if we had had enough batteries!!!
