Desert Safari


My parents were here for 2 weeks this last month.  We did many of the touristy things there are to do here in Abu Dhabi, including a desert safari.  One of the things you can do while on a desert safari (in addition to 4-wheeling, camel riding, and belly dancing) is sandboarding.  This is essentially riding a snowboard down a sand dune.  What is the difference between sand and snow?  Well, there may be a reason this sport will never make it to the olympics!
