Day 3 & 4 - Dubai - Sun, Sand Dunes and Sheesha (plus a few Camels)


So this blog I have merged with yesterday as it was mostly spent hungover! Carine and I popped to Barasti which is essentially a club on the beach with some of her work friends to catch up on the previous nights events which I can say were rather entertaining :) 

I stuck to coke but one of the boys decided it required a hint of beer much to my annoyance. After eating our body weight in pizza and nibbles we headed back for a snooze. Some of the new arrivals at her work popped over to the apartment and then they headed out with Carine to party again. Did a bit of FaceTime and got myself some sleep.

I got up early to a rather weary looking Carine, made her coffee in bed then cooked her fried breakfast, because that is how I roll! Packed the beach bag and then we headed to get some rays, consequently her hungover state resulted in falling asleep. We left mid afternoon and headed back to the apartment where we were picked up by the safari man.

We shared our journey with two lovely Belgium ladies. The safari was AMAZING! We definitely had the most mental driver who thought it was funny every time we giggled or screamed and kept blaming it on the 'crazy car' in my element, vehicles and adrenaline rushes! 

After about an hours dune driving, watching the sun set and motorway racing between cars we settled in a remote camp. There was sheesha, henna, fancy dress, sand boarding and camel rides! Obviously I participated in all activities some more successfully than others. After some light entertainment including belly dancing we had a beautiful Arabic BBQ. We all regrouped and made the journey back home where I am writing this, so far there have been two accidents so to avoid the traffic we just went off road instead! Upon our return I will be uploading this to the web and sleeping! 

Night all x
