SSooooooooooo jealous
While I enjoy school, I am rather bummed that while I'm toiling away studying for exams and writing lab reports, my friends are globe-trotting to places I really want to go one day...Happy for you! Motivation for me to get my degree and find a good job so I can join you on your travels. :)

I\'ve always been intrigued by that language. You will have to let me know how the class goes. I hope this finds you safe, healthy and happy, Pookie.

it looks delicious
That chicken and mushroom pot pie looks delicious. That's the sort of thing I enjoy. I understand how work can really take over a persons life. I was so delighted when I finally got everything lined up for an early retirement. Now travel is "my job" and I put a great deal of time doing homework on the locations I visit but it's the kind of work I enjoy. It's good you are learning the language of the location you are at. I have tons of Language Learning material for various languages that I had thought I would take on when I retired but can't muster the self discipline to do it so when I go to those countries I just have to do the best I can. At least having lived in Texas most of my career I managed to pick up enough Spanish to get by when I visited Mexico last winter.

Sweet!
Pun intended! Sounds like a fun-gluttonous time! You deserve it with all the hard work you have ahead of you. Have fun being the boss for a bit! I'm sure you'll impress. :)

It's 5 o'clock somewhere....
:) Hehehe! Probably where that saying actually came from. Sounds like you are quite the busy happy girl for the time being. Yay!! We need another FT date. :) Miss and love! xoxox

A Monday shamal
I was caught in that sandstorm too - but had just existed the metro to see the clouds of sand swirling towards me, so made a hasty move to the nearest shopping mall. Despite my pace, I was still covered with a light layer of sand. I can see why you love Dubai, and it is my intention to resettle here in the coming months. Would be great to meet in Dubai during one of your visa runs!

Fun
I want to go dune bashing! If I ever make it to visit we must do this! :) And I love the inside of the pyramid hotel, very cool! Miss you! We should FT soon! xoxox

Classic picture!
Hello Pookie I love the picture of the goats in the back of the truck. That is awesome. They look like they are having a wonderful trip. Hope all is well for you, Buttercup. Cheers, Romsa

Carrying Camels
I've never seen camels being carried like this in all my time in the Middle East, but they look most content.

It\'s really great to see what you are up to, Pookie. I can\'t wait for your next update!

I would go to Budapest...
...to answer your question. I have some Peace Corps friends who spent some time there and they said it was incredible. Thanks for the blog entry and the photos. I hope this finds you well, buttercup.
