Day 54: Dubai, UAE

Camels! We started our day with camels. Eric was nice enough to arrange a dune-bashing morning for us. It involved many emotions: fear, exhilaration, relief, joy. Fear when your car is tipping almost 90 degrees forward or 45 degrees to the side; exhilaration when you realize it's fun and you're going to make it; relief when you actually land; and joy when you see a camel. Then, you repeat.

After our morning workout (aka, my right arm gripping the "holy hell" handle), we decided to put our feet up and relax - poolside! We read, swam, and beat the heat.

Evening activities involved drinks and dinner with our amazing hosts Eric, Laura, and Sprout (Chris even did shots!). We are currently at the airport crossing our fingers, hoping to make the flight home. Think good thoughts for us! Oh yes, and Go Hawks!
