Approaching The First Day of Work

So, the apartment didn't work out so well. I think the guys that I were dealing with were trying to pull a fast one on me. I wasn't comfortable with taking the place, so my apartment hunt continues... oh joy! (sarcasm)  

I am really ready to be settled, but can't yet, still living out of my suitcases. I am going to go rent a car today, so at least I will be mobile. It is also still really warm and humid here, but I'm slowly getting used to it all. 

I went to "old town" Dubai yesterday, which was really interesting, though when we got there everything was closed, so we couldn't really look around too much. [besides the fact that it was way too hot!] 

Other then that, things are status quo in Dubai. Eid is over and life is slowly returning to normal. Work starts Sunday morning... yes, I said Sunday morning. The work week over here is Sunday - Thursday. That will take a little getting used to. A few times already I have caught myself saying I am starting work on Mond... err.... Sunday. :) You get the point. 

More to come soon... signing off for now. Peace and Blessings to you all. BH
This picture above, is the new "Atlantis Hotel." We tried to go to it, but the traffic was too bad so we turned around and came home. Do a google search and you will find some pretty amazing photos. Mom and Dad, you need to stay here! (It is located at the end of the "palm")
