Yes, ok I know, it's been a while since I wrote... It has been a week, or two actually, of holiday. Finally I say, couldn't wait to have some time away from school runs, packed lunches, activities, homework and other must-do's. And of course it was time for the big family reunion! The Lindströms have been here and a lot of things have been happening. I don't have many pictures from their visit, I am waiting for them to send me some good ones. But I have a picture from our visit to Burj Al Arab, the world's only seven-star hotel. It was quite an experience to see it all, the incredable luxury and extravaganza. Some architect must be very happy to have fulfilled his dream. We had cocktails in the sky bar, on the 27th floor, to celebrate mum and dad's 60th birthday. Mum got roses from the waiter, so yes, it was classy.
This week, we are missing them very much, but still had holiday time and Jon has been off work a few days beacuse of Eid, kind of like the Muslim Christmas or something. We took 2 day trips away from Dubai to see something else of the emirates, like...sand. I do have some great pictures from the dessert safari we did yesterday, driving our own car throught the sand dunes. What an experience! So cool!! We were six Swedish families, some more experienced than others, luckily, since we were not one of them...but Jon did really well, we only got stuck twice.
