Desert Safari

The desert safari was absolutely incredible. We saw camels, eagles, ostriches and rabbits on our way to the dunes and once we got there all we saw was sand and white Landcruisers. Here is a short video of a view from our car and some photos of the day. (it should work soon)

This is a photo from the top of a dune looking out. You’ll notice people and a Landcruiser in the bottom left-hand corner.

This is a photo of all of us dressed in traditional Arabian dress at the campsite at the end of our safari. We ate all the traditional foods (yes, Marilyn, there were dates) and watched belly dancing.

This photo is of our Henna tattoos, it’s really just paint that doesn’t wash off for a few weeks.
