On the way to Dubai for the day

We had a fabulous prizegiving and dinner last night at a cool fort. It was really well decked out and the lighting was neat. Done was divine, which has been a common theme this race. Then we headed back to the Hilton hotel and joined other racers in the downstairs pub for post race festivities.

The race provided a shuttle back to Abu Dhabi but our option was 6am or late afternoon so although we only got to crawl into out Hilton beds after 1am and get up at 5, it was a good call.

We have just dropped our crates at our hotel and are in a taxi (South African style) to Dubai. Our plan is to take an open bus for a city tour. We will also hook up with Bennie and also Francois, a new friend from the race (French living in Dubai).

We will be back in Abu tonight and flying good at noon tomorrow.

We are all well post race with few after effects other than needing to feed regularly. Haha.

Always sad to get to the end of a race and especially an experience like this. We have made new friends and hope to see them again at another race in conver place. For the four of us it is nice to have this time together now to sightsee and play.

Have a good day y'all.
