From the frostbite of the ski slopes to the serenity of the desert plains, all in one day. Tonight we enjoyed a traditional Arabic dinner at the Bab Al Shams resort, about an hour drive from our house. There was a vast buffet, as well as belly dancers, camel rides, henna tattoos, musicians, falcons, etc., etc., etc.! Screamer readily joined Daddy and me on a camel ride, while Sushi, after heavy persuasion and the threat of no ice cream, agreed to stand *next* to a donkey. It was a truly fantastic evening.

Boo! Where is our picture of Sasha next to her first jackass!?! Great pictures...it looks like you guys are starting to adapt and experience Dubai! Which is great to hear, because we need some expert tour guides when we come to visit you in 2010!
QUESTION: When do you think we can expect to see Bab Al Shams popping up in the US? It sounds like the next big kids fastfood joint. Maybe we can get a big goofy Muhammad to be their mascot! Sounds like a million dollar idea.
