Hi All
We have had a fabulous week making our way to London.
We had 3 awesome days in Melbourne catching up with Mark, Annie, Harry and Charlie - we did so much it felt like we there for a week - thanks Mark n Annie for being such wonderful hosts and it was just super to see you both and catch up on the boys activities.
Dubai was incredibly hot, even the locals were saying so! We crammed in so much in the 3days/nights - my highlights were the desert safari/camel ride and our day in Abu Dhabi - our visit to the Grand Mosque there was truly amazing and a must see for anyone visiting. We had some interesting cab rides from one cab driver who kept giving us video clips on his cell phone on the construction of buildings, history and local information to charging my phone (I would have liked him to have watched the road a bit more though). Another cab driver turned off the air conditioning and we thought we were going to melt into the seats - it may have been because we had beat him down so far on the price that he couldn't afford to run the air con?
We arrived in London yesterday afternoon to 10 degrees and very wet weather - a huge contrast from the 45 degrees dry heat in Dubai!! By the time we made it through the London traffic to our London base, had dinner we were tucked up in bed by 8.45 and asleep by 8.46 pm. (Denise & Maureen, we received your mail , thank you.)
Today we will be off to purchase a SIM card and most importantly we are off to meet our motorhome friends to sort out our new home - we will keep you posted !!!
Lots of love, the Kiwi Gypsies x
