Goodbye. Dubai.
After aproximately 30 hrs of traveling, we are back in the US! We had a tremendous time. What a fun place to see! My favorite had to be the shopping - without a doubt. Those malls were INDESCRIBABLE but the desert safari was a closes second. Here we are in the traditional garb on the safari and a few other fun photos... I also made a slide show - way too many to post them all!

It is currently 84 degrees in my house.
I think it might be time we turn on the A/C.
On another note, James and I had the best climbing day ever yesterday!
Here is a picture of the route we did. It was 3 pitches. I'm not entirely sure how to explain this but I will try. First, James would climb the first pitch then he would belay me from the top of the 1st pitch/bottom of the 2nd, then I would belay him from the top of the 1st/bottom of the 2nd pitch and then he would belay me from the top of the 2nd/bottom of the 3rd pitch and so on. I did a little color coding for your reference. James is the only one that did the 3rd pitch. It was really hard, and I was exhausted by they time we got there. If you enlarge the photo you can see the little people on the mountain which will help put this to scale.... :)
Here we are at the top of the 2nd pitch!
And here is James going up the 3rd pitch.
So awesome. You should come with us next time.
