Abu Dhabi Adventure

Others: "So where are you going to be?"
Me: "I am not sure yet, somewhere in Al Gharbia..."
Others: "Oh... is that where you wanted to be?"

Me: "Well, when they sent the email about Delma Island, I replied and said I would love the island... but of course I did some research before I responded."
Others: "When will you know for sure?"
Me: "I don't know."
Others:" What is there to do there?"
Me: "I don't know, perhaps fishing, swimming, gardening... I really am not sure."
Others: "How long will it be before you find out where you will be living?"
Me: "I don't know."
Others: "How will you get furniture, etc. to your place there? Will the furniture companies deliver?"
Me: "I don't know." 
Others:"Aren't you nervous? Don't you want to know? Why would you want to go there?"
Me: "Not really nervous... more excited than anything. Of course I would like to know, but I am ok with waiting to find out. I have many reasons for wanting to go to the western region. Just as you have reasons for wanting to be in the city."

Slowly the wrapping is coming off the gift. I have a general idea of where I will be. I know what cell phone company to go with. I know to wait to think about buying furniture. 





In the mean time, enjoying the sights and culture.
