Guess Who Came to Town?!

During the months of March, April, and May I have had visitors come to the UAE to visit (if you haven't checked out the Sister Visit post make sure you take a look).  Every time a different visitor came it felt like I was on vacation.  I was exploring new places right along with them.  I knew I would have people coming to visit me so I made sure I didn't do or see certain things until I had visitors come to town.  I'm so happy some of my friends and family had the opportunity to get a glimpse of my life abroad and experience a new culture.

Here are a few pictures from my visitors that came in April and May.  Maybe these pictures will convince some of you to visit the UAE next!

Hanging out for Salihah's birthday.

So many people thought he was Rick Ross, I think he was starting to believe it himself.

The very next weekend my line sisters, LaTia and Makuyo came to visit.  

Beach time on Al Maya Island

Look what I found in Dubai!!! Back home I've only found Round Table Pizza in CA and Hawaii.  It's a Swann Family favorite!

 I was excited!  It was good!

Our visit to the Miracle Garden and Butterfly garden.  More pictures of that in my next post.

Last visitor was Jason.  We were getting ready for dune bashing.  I could do nothing but laugh through this experience.  My stomach was dropping constantly!

Jason with our crazy dune bashing driver.

Of course everyone has to see the Burj Khalifa!

Check out the video footage from our dune bashing experience and the Burj Khalifa water show.
