As expected on Christmas I woke Geoff at sparrow's fart and demanded my presents. Since he had already given me the camera the night before pickings were slim. (Latest Marianne Keyes and some Perfume). After devouring half the Marianne Keyes we packed up a picnic basket and headed out for Al Safa Park. Obviously I made Geoff carried said picnic goodies :DAl Safa is a HUGE park in the middle of Dubai (technically in the area of Al Wasl). It's circumference is 3.5km (there's a running track around it) so anyone feeling bored feel free to do the math to work out the area. Anyway it's basically a public open space with green lawns in some areas, big luscious forests in others and a very twee waterfall and lake with ducks and seagulls. (it's close to the beach.)
All in all it was a great lazy way to spend the day - plus we still have tonnes of left over goodies for me to nosh while Geoff is at work! The highlight of the day has to be Geoff expression when I surprised him with his very own Daim bar. You must understand - the Daim bar is practically impossible to find either in SA or the UAE but is a chocolate that rivals all others... especially since the cadbury's here tastes like beacon. PTOO PTOO.
Hope you all had a great Christmas too!
