The long Eid holiday

For all the years that we have been in Dubai, Eid holidays have been a time for frolic and fun a - getting out of the country, or do fun camping / outdoor trips etc. However, since the Islamic calendar is based on the moon, Eid keeps moving forward by a few days every year. And this year the holidays happened end of August, which meant that it was too hot to do anything outdoors. Moreover, the house purchase and a lot of other expenditures meant that we couldn't travel abroad either. So the whole of 5 days was spent doing absolutely nothing.

Next year, Mikie will be too small for us to do much but also, cookie will be big enough for us to stay indoors and do nothing. Hmmmm!
