Desert Safari!!!


You cannot go to the Middle East and miss a Desert Safari. It's like going to Kenya and missing an African one. But, just to warn you, they are VERY different. We were picked up from the mall of Dubai in a Toyota LandCruiser... who knew these SUVs can be outfitted with roll-bars and all of the accommodations of an off road vehicle, along with all of the luxury expected in Dubai. It was great. Our first stop was a 4-wheeling area outside if the city.

There was a baby camel. Of course I was in love with him.
Then I was outfitted on my 4 wheeler where I got to explore the changing sands... so much fun!

Later we went and explored the desert. This is a picture of the Jeep in front of us. It was amazing.
The beautiful sand.
In the middle of the desert.


Such a cool photo. Lana is a great photographer.
Later we were able to try on the traditional garments of Dubai. We definitely felt like gangsters in our clothing.

And finally, after a traditional meal, there was a traditional belly dancer. Pretty amazing if you ask me.

  2. What you've done becomes the judge of what you're going to do - especially in other people's minds. When you're traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don't have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road.
