Part 3 - Back to Dubai before heading home

We stayed at the Hilton Dubai Creek for our last night of our trip before catching an early morning flight back to San Francisco. For our last afternoon and evening I booked us on the Platinum Heritage Desert Safari. I can highly recommend this firm and tour - yes it is pricey but you get what they advertise and more.


Ready for some dune bashing in the desert outside Dubai.


First we need some protection from the fierce sun


Us with an original 4WD desert vehicle…


There is seriously nothing out here…










Oryx skull we found


Live oryx we saw


We rode a camel for about 30 minutes across the desert to the camp where dinner was served




Gotta get a tat before going home to show Mom!


In closing my son and I built some more wonderful memories which we will both carry with us for a long time. We're looking forward to wherever the next trip will take us. I personally am looking forward to when he can take ME on a nice trip someday!
