Dubai #3

Okay, here are some more photos.. Hope everything is well ;)

^^ here is cynthia and i in the sand dunes, after we went on safari tours.

^^here, if you can see, are what we were in driving around the desert.
it was quite rough and i wouldn't recommend for people with motion sickness or injuries.

^^in the sand, it felt so nice without shoes.

^^ camels are quite ugly, but i still like them.
i find it amazing they can go without water for 50 days.
luckily, we got to ride some..

^^sorry, the image is quite bad quality, but i am in the grey.
it is quite scary to get down from these, as they first go down on their front legs,
then their hind legs.
^^ sandboarding, its much easier than skiing actually,
but i love skiing more.


^^this here is henna, i don't know how it is spelt, but its a bracelet, and it turns a light brown.
i also got my name in Arabic on my foot...

^^the bracelet and my name, however they read from right to left.
cultures sure are amazing.

So the past few days have been quite amazing, i am sitting in the airport writing this to you as soon i go back to Switzerland, which is quite sad... which is also amazing that i am saying that it is sad to go back to another amazing place. Its just i feel like i didn't get to stay here long enough.

Well, we had tours of Dubai and Abeu Dahbi, both in the country of Emirates, which i didn't know existed.
So i learnt that married men wear a long white robe, and then the women wear black, where the husbands choose if they want her to cover just her hair, her face except eyes or everything. However they have beaches where it is aloud women & children only, where our tour guild said its the day they can enjoy themselves fully which i find very interesting don't you?

Anyways, i love Dubai, and i have brought a lamp, i am hoping there will be genie inside or something. haha.

^^ the biggest mall. EVER.
seriously.
