And so it continues....

Our dinner for Lynley was delicious...the man in charge decided what we should eat...it was a neighbourhood street restaurant & was full of locals coming & going...anyway, we were to have a small entree...there were two huge platters of shaved ham, two huge pizza breads with olive oil on them, a big platter of tempura veges & zucchini flowers & 2 platters of sliced rockmelon & the biggest figs I've ever seen...plus a big bowl of buffalo mozzarella!!  & that was only the entree...our main course was a platter of mixed meats which turned out to be grilled meats...very deliscious...plus fried potato chunks & 2 big bowls of salad...the salad was particularly appreciated as we haven't had much in the way of veg on this trip.
Checked out of our rather unusual apartment...(the showers were contrary) & it seemed that someone lived there & had only moved out for us to move in....& headed for the airport....rather sad as our trip was pretty much over.  Ron & Di have been left at Dubai airport as they have booked straight through.  We are at our hotel in Dubai but can't check in for a couple more hours yet. Love to all

  1. Those figs sound delicious. Last days ...but still enjoy as much as you can absorb in the time left. Travel safely , and I hope not too noisy with kids on board. Both well, each day is a plus for Dad. Much love Mum Dad

  2. I can't believe how much Italians serve before Dinner! We found the same in Sorrento, at a family vineyard for dinner - so much antipasto - plates and plates of it, so that there was no room for the meal!
    It's wonderful to travel with others and share the experience and you've had a great crew this trip.
    Enjoy the differentness that is Dubai and don't get chased in the Old Souk!
