It was hard to believe that this was the UAE. Not a dishdash or abaya is sight and not too many Emirates. Instead we were treated to traditional western culture. Everybody getting pissed, making fools of themselves and generally having a good time. A small minority even watched the rugby.
Steve, Sue’s brother-in-law (Sarah’s husband), flew in from Istanbul, just for the weekend – here he is with the England team.
Together with Manda & Mark we enjoyed the first day of the Dubai Sevens. The crowd was generally well mixed, as is typical at these events, but somehow we managed to be surrounded by the Kenyan supporters. Boy they know how to party! All manner of costumes, chants and songs.
Weather is lovely, wish you were here
