Just make sure you close your tent and don't leave any food out or in reach of horses (tents with out fully sewn in ground sheets horse get there heads under them and pull the tent up to get at food!) I've seen many people arrive back to a horse ransacked tent! Where about are you staying? I'd like to pop by for a visit if you don't mind. Might be able to advise on some nice places to go/eat.. Oh and there are loads of geocaches in the forest... that will take to beautiful place you would otherwise never discover. |

Enjoy Dubai, not sure what it's like for a lady visiting, I had an ok time, didn't think it was particularly brilliant, but I was there on business, I can imagine being there on holiday would be much more fun! If you do go, go skiing in the Dubai Snow Park - it was surreal.

Doubtful that skiing will happen! lol Shopping definitely though. Will look into the Desert trip
We are going for four days as well, staying at the Hilton - so will chiefly be a tanning holiday if things are too expensive! BB x |

Travelling around is cheap, Taxis are for nothing
Booze is horribly expensive, food in hotels expensive but cheap where locals eat Last edited by Grandad; 02-07-2010 at 18:16. |
