Tales from the Desert

Is that snow?!?

I met up with an old friend from Saudi Arabia today. Abe and I haven't seen each other since a teary departure
from Disney World in January 2001. So quite fitting to meet up in a mall, called IBN Battuta, which is laid out as six
different countries, and kind of made me think back to Millennium Village at Epcot Centre in Florida.
From there we moved on to the Mall of the Emirates. Which is huge. And has a ski slope. With snow. Real snow, people.
I will have to send pictures. Because who's gonna believe there's snow in the desert when it's like 50 degrees Celcius outside?
