Sam had organized a birthday weekend treat for us at Qasr Al Sarab - A resort by Anantara in the "Empty Quarter Desert" - one of the most arid places on earth. The road there was very loooong, straight and uneventful
Thankfully we were able to rely on Sam's pea sized bladder and no road side toilets for a bit of entertainment ...
unfortunately the pictures of the acrobatics she went through for "relief" have been censored but Sam was grateful for the dunes and hiding behind "foxy" (yes we named our car!!)
no matter how many stories I told it was hard to distract Sam from an endless journey without any other shops than the very scary "white Sand restaurant"
and there were lots of sand - most of it red (not sure why they called that restaurant "white sand" and we didn't dare to find out)
at the gate to the resort with just another 8 kilometers of "dune bashing" to go..thank god for a great navigation system
We finally arrived at what we had feared would be similar to a large "dungeons and dragons" board game.....to be continued...
