Many of you know that we have been discussing that we need a change and we have finally just decided to just do it! We are selling our home and relocating to DUBAI, UAE next week! Crazy?! It's construction heaven there! They say that 25% of the worlds construction cranes are operating in Dubai. They are building some of the most imaculate buildings! Check out all the construction that is going on in Dubai by clicking HERE. It's amazing how fast Dubai is growing. Burj Al Arab (Arabic: برج العرب, literally, Tower of the Arabs)
Tallest building in the world!
As for the kids, Christopher is excited because he loves the architecture there. He can't wait to see all the tall pretty buildings! Especially the Burj Al Arab--his favorite building with the helicopter pad way up on top! Anneli will love the beaches! Education will not be a problem--it'll probably be better there than here in the United States! There are some great schools in Dubai like the American School of Dubai and the Al-Mizhar American Academy for Girls. It's super exciting! I'm looking forward to attending Eton Institute of Languages and adding a few more languages to my list! It will be such a fabulous experience.
We hope to catch up with you all soon!
GOTTCHA!!!
April Fools !!!
Did I have you believing??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
****I've never pulled an April Fools thing before, but this morning I typed up the above post about relocating to Dubai! It's something we've been throwing around, but Shaun would never go for it. I can't even get him to take a vacation outside the United States! At about 2:30 pm I got a frantic phone call from my sisters on a three way call! I talk to Jess almost everyday and Valerie a couple times a week and they totally thought it was for real. Their expressions were priceless! APRIL FOOLS! I better watch out, they are going to get me back!

NPR had a week-long segment on Dubai the other week. Sounds very interesting! I can see Shawn thriving over there in construction heaven!!!
Dubai does sound like fun and it sure is construction heaven like RAE said. Aren't the flights there expensive though?!
