Andy and I slept in a bit this morning and spent some time reading, planning, and working on pictures. About 12:30 we took off on our own in a Ford Expedition on the busy highways and byways around Mirdif which is out by the airport. Let's just say it took us a while to find the Arabian Center - where we wanted to have a fun and special lunch from South Africa. It was in a mall (does that surprise you?).
Becky recommended we eat at Nando's which specializes in South African food. We ordered one of their best selections - "hanging wonder of the world" called Espetada Carnival. It is flame grilled chicken with garlic, parsley, and feta skewered with peppers. It comes with butternut squash and grilled corn and French fries. Very good!
Then we drove over to the Mushrif National Park and drove around a bit. Got up over 100 today and was quite humid, so we didn't feel much like walking around. Looked like a great place for families with young children.
Found a box to send postcards to the grandkids just outside the mall. Most all the signs are in Arabic and English.
