7,8,9 and oma and opa's visit!

oma and opa came a-visitin' for about 10 days. baby was very, very happy, surrounded by all these people who love her.it pays that she is already able to say "oma" and "opa."


they came at the right time as dubai was starting to get nuts with all its events and activities. summer would often bring dubai to a deep slumber, and it would awaken during the cooler months of november until march or april.

as soon as they arrived, we went to the beach.but of course!


we also watched a beach soccer game.




we then took them to satwa, one of my favorite dubai neighborhoods.

a view from satwa: mixture of the old and the new


the shops were brimming with uae day paraphernalia.




a shop brimming with arabic sweets

satwa is also popular because of its tailor and textile shops.

i like satwa! it's so real!

celebrating the uae national day - next!
