and that's before the sandstorms, heat, ramadan, crazy left/right driving, and the months of time taken for any locals to make any decision

gosh can't wait for our adventure to start..... anything we've missed...

You just don't do it in public areas, walking along the corniche in a boob tube and hotpants is asking for trouble, but still doesn't stop some of the flips doing it.
