Oh what a weekend, I am glad to say that this weekend has turned out to be one of the better weekends I have had here in the UAE. When school end on Thursday, I thought oh the girls and I will head into AD (Abu Dhabi) do our shopping and then head home, and spend the rest of the weekend working on school stuff. Was I wrong, well kind of wrong. The girls and I did end up heading into AD after school on Thursday, where I was able to get some much need décor for my apartment, a lamp for my side table, and some lamp shades for my light bulbs that hang from my ceiling. Got back from there at about 11:00 pm and then did some laundry and cleaned my house. Good productive day.
Got up on Friday thinking well I guess I will get to work on some school stuff, which I did. I got about half way through when my door bell rang. Stacy my next door neighbor wanted to know if I wanted to run to the store with her, I said sure and we were off. Well half way to the store she asked if I would like to see the Moreeb Dune. I was excited since I hadn’t gotten to see it yet. So we headed down to the dune. After getting lost for about 30 minutes, we finally found the way there. It was the most beautiful thing I have seen. The trip there was great we so such beautiful site, words and pictures cannot describe what we saw. At one point we had a wild heard of camels that was running along the car. It was so great to see. Once we got to the dune, it was nothing like I had seen before; here is this pile of sand that is as tall and steep as a small mountain. Looking up it you could see where people tried to climb it and where four wheelers had made it up the side. After that we headed back to the apartments where I worked on finishing up my lesson plans and then finished my Christmas Cards. So those will be mailed off this week, in hopes they get there, before Christmas.
Oh what a day on Saturday, I can’t say that I did a lot, but it feels like I did. Stacy and I headed into AD for the day the day to get tons of earns done. We headed to the Abu Dhabi mall to start. I ended up buys three shirt and two sweaters. I was not thinking I was going to buy clothes today. After that we ate some India food and then head out to Al Wada Mall, here we had went to LuLu’s, which I have to say is a great store. We headed to Spinney’s after that to get some foods that I can’t find anywhere else. Finally we head out to the Dania Mall and hit Home Center and Carrefour. We got back about an hour ago and I am completely wiped out. Until next time.
