Where, oh WHERE will I get good BBQ?!


Why on the desert 4x4 tour, you big sillyhead!

My coworker and buddy in this adventure, NH, just emailed one of the "extracurricular" activities we will be trying:

The ultimate Arabian Desert Wonder Safari with your own private 4x4 vehicle!

WOO HOO! And for only $75 US Dollars I don't think I can pass it up! Here's the summary:

Depart Dubai in the afternoon and take a thrilling sand dune drive to your first destination, the camel farm. The drive continues across the desert where you will witness a beautiful desert sunset. This is one of the highlights of a trip to the Arabian deserts. Prepare to be amazed!

Upon arrival at the campsite, you will have the opportunity to ride a camel, go sandboarding and try out a henna design on your hands or feet.

Next, enjoy a delicious BBQ dinner and a shisha (the famous Arabic water pipe). The evening includes a belly dancer performing her show around the campfire by starlight.

Now I hate to say this, but isn't there an obvious question here? If we are stopping at a Camel Farm...AND there's a BBQ...what do you suppose will be the meat under that sauce? We shall see.

Watch Out! They Spit!

With their ability to live in the desert, the meat won't be too dry...
But the walk home will be a drag...

I am so happy for you! This is a once in a life-time experience and you are doing it! I promise to check in every once in a while (and maybe eat some Famous Dave's BBQ for you!).

Enjoy!

Well...how'd it turn out? What's a camel kabob like? And did they have male belly dancers, too?
