    This coming Friday MAR 16 we will be visiting the eastern emirates for a full day adventure drive.
    All DO members and their families are invited to join us for a pleasant day in the mountains where we shall start slowly on road trip between mountains and some rainwater basin then we will make our way through the wadi to a spectacular BURAQ DAM where we will have lunch break and relax then we head to FILI exit straight into the dunes starting from 2nd December . Once we’ve had enough dune bashing we will head to an open flat land near the exit to enjoy a BBQ/shisha and end the day around 09:00 pm

    For those who wish to stay for the BBQ pls make sure to bring your own equipment, food, beverage and some fire wood. we will be having 1/2 h lunch break near the DAM during the day as well, so some extra food should be sufficient for that.

    1- join for full day. ( wadi + dunes )

    Hi, my name is Chris ๐Ÿ™‚ and this would be first drive with you guys.
    Is this a ride where I can bring my kids with me (4yrs old but have been with me to Fossil Rock etc)? And roughly, how long do you estimate the second part will be from leaving cafeteria to the bbq spot?
    Cheers

    Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend the trip, my Jeep’s engine is producing some weird noise, sounds like a hair dryer :(.
