Dubai, Day 7


May 26, 2009
Dubai, UAE

Our one great touristy venture this trip was the desert safari-- a trip into the desert to experience dune bashing, belly dancing, henna, falconry, sandboarding, camel riding, and arabic food.  Pictures speak better than words.
The whole gang in the desert: Me, Illika, Olsen, Hilary, Tahra, and Link.  Dubai might be a huge advanced city, but it really is surrounded by desert.  As in, sand sand everywhere.

 Getting ready to dune bash.  Note the roll-over bars
Dune bashing-- driving around in SUVs, crashing through the sand.  Basically, the roller coaster of the desert.
