I just got back from a desert safari


It was in a word, awesome.

We left Christmas afternoon and spent most of the 26th in the desert and mountains on the UAE/OMAN border.

My website has the details http://www.usa2uae.com/

1. Wow, Jerald, awesome is the right word.
The pictures are lovely, and your girls are just so pretty. Just think the memories they are building now.

Thanks so much for sharing. Hi to all from a fellow Floridian.

2. Good to hear from you again...
One way to avoid the post-Christmas blahs is to go on an expedition... :)

It was an absolute blast. SNTTA was also great because our guides were as ecofriendly as possible. We only drove on areas already disturbed. When they used grass to help start a fire, they carefullu shook out any seeds before using. We left NO trash behind.

4. You need to write a book about your adventures..
The middle east is a very important place , especially right now, and your adventures are fun to read about..

Who knows?? You might even become a famous author :)
