Yas

Last week end, we made a family excursion to Yas island. Just off down town, this island is being developed with the Formula 1 circuit, Ferrari world, golf courses, etc.

A race was going on, the engines roaring, the cars speeding by and after we admired the architecture of the glamoro

us Yas hotel, we sipped a tea while Inácia w

as making friends with all the employees. It's sensational how she conquers hearts in no time! The stunning place also gave Miguel the opportunity to work on his photography skills: looking very professional to me.

She indeed is a darling. And already a hand full. Luckily I have 2 of these :-)

Dunes, dunes, dunes

After the archeological visit, we did not want to drive straight back over the freeway so we went into the desert... and had a great time. The location was easy, especially because of the children but Miguel hit some hard dunes and... Inacia loved it! We pick-nicked at Fossil Rock, overseeing the desert with dunes as far as the eye could reach, drove through parts of the desert that the heavy December rains had left green and hope to go back very soon for an overnight excursion. Inacia is now a real local!

Mleiha: an archeological visit

Believe it or not: there are archeological sites to visit here! We were invited to visit this site close to the Oman border, guided by Michel Mouton, an archeologist from the French CNRS. His lively explanations brought life to the stone walls and remains of jars and vases. Glad to to something really different and discover unsuspected places.

Brunch at the Club for Inacia's "birthday": my two darlings. Happiness.
