That thread reminds me, anyone seen Wuffles recently? She's not an Oder, or anything other, is she?
Go dune bashing in the Liwa desert;
Take a guided tour of the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi;
Visit the Emirates Palace Hotel whilst you're in AD (go and look at the Christmas Tree in the lobby, entry is free, not like at the Burj Al Arab!);
Afternoon tea at the Madinat;
Blue souq in Sharjah;
Bastakiya and Shindagha (Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum House has wonderful photos of "early" Dubai);
The Oasis at Al Ain;
Apparently, the Gold & Diamond Park on SZR is worth a visit and a purchase if you like jewellery.
Have a great time :)

Swim with the dolphins at Atlantis

So.... We are on our last 6 months here. What should we have done / should we do before we leave?
It's fair to say, we haven't done much. Just realised after 3 years we have hardly done anything, so any ideas welcome!
TIA
