Halloween Party
Above are some pics of a halloween party a bunch of the ACS teachers attended. It was a pretty fun time. A few friends in the picture include Paul "Mr. Clean", Jessie (baby), Lisa (Paul's wife) was the cleaning lady, and Laura was Sandy from the movie Grease. Brad went as Napoleon Dynamite, and played the character very well:) I went as the 1967 World Champion Ping-Pong player (pretty lame, I know).

The Apartment
The other side of Emirates Palace
This is the other side of Emirates Palace, you will notice that it is quite large and has many acres to it. The picture with the beach front is all part of Emirates Palace, so if you stay there, you have the entire beach to yourself. I rarely see anyone out on the beach. The amount of beach the Palace has goes for probably 2 miles. Just behind the beach is a huge park for people that are staying at the palace to walk around.
Climbing Around
I did a rock climbing unit with my 3rd - 5th graders and took some pics of some of the classes. The students really seemed to enjoy the unit and had no idea you could do so many different activities on the rock wall without even getting into a harness. I also put a picture up of the board outside my gym. See mom, I am somewhat crafty.

I'm Back, sorry for the 2 month delay:)
I apologize for not updating this in the last 2 months, the heat is finally starting to decrease and beginning to be nice enough to get out and get some shots. I also have been fairly busy and have not gotten around to it. The pictures in this post are around the downtown area of abu dhabi. The different beach shots were taken at various clubs in abu dhabi that we checked out during our orientation. The clubs were nice as well as very expensive.
The above shots are all of the Corniche, which is very beatiful. The main beaches are right along the Corniche and the blue tile walk/bike way goes for a few miles. The water is a very pretty and
has a very light aqua blue color to it.

The two shots above, do not do this place justice at all. They are of the Emirates Palace, which is one of only two 7 star hotels in the world. The place looks like it is out of some fantasy movie. I will get some more pics of it to show you all.
