Dubai UAE Day #1 **Part 2**

Sunday, November 11th

Tonight we are to experience the Desert Safari...

The description is as follows:

The mysterious desert is the ideal venue for a magical and memorable evening....

Leaving behind the crowds and chaos of the city, trained safari guides driving 4x4 vehicles lead a thrilling journey over towering sand dunes deep into the heart of the desert. Hopefully, we will be treated to a wonderful view of the setting sun over the sand dunes. We will enjoy "dune bashing".......the dune bashing was great!!!! Reminded me of going with Patrick Watts in the Falklands out to Volunteer Point to see the penguins.

Sunset over the Arabian Desert
Arrive at the desert camp with the traditional Arabian welcome offering Arabic coffee, tea and dates. Enjoy the true Arabian ambience at this Bedouin campsite with traditional Arabian carpets, low tables and cushions for comfortable seating. At the deset camp experience the exciting camel ride












This is my camel.......





Snacks and soft drinks are provided before a sumptuous dinner buffet with a wide variety of barbacue meats, salads and desserts.....that was the description of the buffet..I really wouldn't call it "sumptuous"..it really was pretty awful but the rest of the night was so much fun

The climax of the Evening Safari is the performance, under the star lit skies, of an exotic belly dancer with amazing tanoura dancer.
