I'm excited about it. Be a great place to see and tick off the list. We're only going to a small part so hopefully will leave wanting to explore the rest one day.

Re: Ramadan
This is the story I wait for every Ramadan.
UAE doctors warn about overeating after fasts | The National "Despite the annual warnings, hundreds of people have been admitted to emergency rooms already this Ramadan because of overeating at iftars." Greedy buggers. |

but having said that the holiest night (lailatul qadar) is said to be found in any of the odd nights of the last 10 days of the month i.e. 21, 23, 25, 27 or 29 but a lot of scholars agree on the high chances of it being on the last 3 odd nights and most chances of it being on the 27th night, which makes the chances of Eid being on the 18th of this month |
