Qatar = FIFA World Cup Construction!
They are getting quite desperate over there, and NEED to get ready. Stadium construction? Nothing new for you. In fact this winter I watched Ventura HS soccer play a CIF playoff game in Downey, in one of the stadiums where you did driven pile observation so many years ago! Thanks for blogging. Hope all is well. Todd's baby arrived safely, baby Joseph. Much love, Lauren

Thanks!
Thanks to you both for your continual comments. Sharnell - how's the baby? Can't wait to see YOUR pictures! Did you have a shower yet? Jamal - very rarely do i ever get a seat on the metro. There are not very many but the ride is pretty smooth. It can get crowded, but usually you can find a place to stand near a window.

Comments
I read all your blogs but don't always have time to comment. I'll try to get better at it. Do places get offended if you take pics? I thought the UAE was all about tourism. So be a big tourist and take those pictures! I'm sure the people of the country will be proud that you're sharing their culture with your friends! Love you!

Thanks guys! I love the feedback! :) I see that people are reading, but I have no idea who half the time. Thanks Amber!! Steve - I am not sure if they actually sell surfboards at that particular store, but your question had me thinking and today at lunch I noticed that they DO sell boards at this adventure store at Times Square; I laughed.

suggested words to learn
hey girl, glad to hear things are coming along! learning a language is diff! when i was in china i learned numbers, direction like left, right, straight, a basic marker where i lived (KFC) to get me close to home and please and thank you. it was all that i needed on my own. there was lots of pointing too! that basic bit was amazing cuz people continuously tried to rip us off!!! so when i knew how much something was and they wanted more, i could tell them theyre full of shite!!! love the stories!!!

Good luck, I'm sure once Jamie gets there you guys will nail down a good routine, and have a blast of course! :) Miss and love!!!
