Hi folks. As I'm living in a hotel that charges AED18 (about RM16) for 20mins internet access, blogging has taken a back seat to more critical www activities. But somehow the www is working for free at the moment so i've time for a post!
Spent a fortune on taxis the first few days getting around - looking at schools etc... but got a car on Wednesday so I've got some cheaper transport here. Driving on the right was a new experience for me - so far so good. Still keep reaching the wrong way for the seat-belt, handbrake and gears though!
The sun is up at 5.30am every day, and its 40 degrees-ish (30 minimum). It's already Malaysia-hot by 8am!
Haven't ventured out for a run yet, but have checked out the cost of bikes!
I'm starting work in earnest tomorrow - wish me luck. More sewers for me for another 18months!
Looks like we'll live in a nice 3 bedroom villa (house = villa here) in a development called The Lakes, quite close to the 7-star Burj Al-Arab hotel and the Palm Jumeirah. Also close to Ski Dubai and the 2 schools for Lucas that we'll be applying to on Sunday.

I want to go to Dubai and I would love to be in contact with someone who lives there. I am in Oregon, USA. If you know of anyone who might be interested in some communication/friendship via email, please pass my info. along. I have many questions of Duabi and would love to hear about it. You can read a bit about myself at my web site: www.creativerealestatechick.com. My email is: ShezaJewel at aol dot com. Thank you in advance for any assistance. Danika Dahl
