Since we are leaving tomorrow I had to take today to prepare for the grueling
journey. The day started with a swim, in the wonderful, Kempinski pool, which
I had all to myself. Yeah! Today is the Muslim Sabbath, or day of prayer so things
were pretty quiet. Usually everything is closed Friday morning and re-opens in the
afternoon. Followed by BREAKFAST, yes, here at the Kempinski, we had the usual mix
of olives, pickles, hummos, halavah but in addition there were omelettes made to order, bacon, sausage, hash browns, eight kinds of bread and oh yes, fresh fruit!
After breakfast it was time for a mani/pedi with Lana,she does a great job and guess
what, you don't need a "nail drying machine" here it Jordan, you just step outside
and the HEAT dries your polish in about 5 seconds. Another reason to Love Jordan.
I spent the day poolside, with various friends dropping by! Then I had a massage.
I think I might be relaxed enough to leave. While I was poolside I was reading
the Kempinski magazine and guess what happens in Dubai in Decemember??? Yes they
have the WORLD's only and perhaps greatest event, The DUBAI SHopping Festival.. oh
my gawddddddddddddddddddddddddd I so have to go to that! It lasts over 2 weeks and
there are all kinds of events and fashion shows! I can't really think of a better
way to spend those dreary "holidays"...yes, they have a Kempinski in Dubai!!!
I'm glad to report that the Suzi person who wanted to work at an NGO has left
the premises and the other Suzi person has returned.

There are days when I intentionally don’t write. For instance, I never write when I’m traveling, because travel is a situation where I can learn more by looking and listening than by working.
