Hi. I was in UAE in 2001 and I loved Abu Dhabi. Have you had a chance to go site seeing? I love how you can drive around the city and see camals just sitting around like we see stray dogs in the States. I remember seeing a Johnny Rockets there and we ate at a Chilis. We went to a water park there and seeing the Persian Gulf from the tallest slide was remarkable. Please let me know how things are there. Oh, I also went to the Hard Rock Cafe and the golf course Tiger Woods played at while he was there. Sorry if I seem spastic; I'm just excited for you. It's truly a great opportunity.
