    Eid Al Adha may fall on Sunday, October 5, 2014, according to the Chairman of Islamic Crescent Observation Project (ICOP). If this is the case, the public sector in the UAE might be once again looking forward to a nine-day holiday break.

    Eid could also fall on October 4, however, Mohammed Shawkat Awda, was quoted as saying in ‘Al Bayan’.

    There seems to be some confusion on the actual dates of E’id Al Adha, so we may have to adjust the schedule nearer to the event, once the actual dates are formally announced.

    dear offroaders
    the Saudi Arabia government just Announced that the first day of ูEid is on 4th October.
    so stop reading the post and sign for the trip and prepare ur gear, ASAP :yesss:

    E’id has been announced by the UAE Government, to be on 4th of October 2014, so the schedule remains as announced earlier.
    We will depart from Emarat Petrol pump, Jebel Ali, Dubai on 4th October morning.
    If there is anybody joining us from Abu Dhabi, that option is also open. They can join the convoy at 08:45 on 4th morning at ADNOC, Al Mafraq. This is the ADNOC just before the turnoff to Mafraq Hotel.

    Hello Ahmed bhai, is this the same route that we took during our previous Liwa trip :drive: ?
    :thanks:

    Liwa drives are always exciting as the dunes are always shifting, changing the scenery and the drive is challenging and difficult due to the fine texture of the sand, itself.
    No, it will not be the same route as I plan to take a few long down slopes that I had avoided last time.

    Dear Respected Members,

    Hello My name is Tahir, and i have been doing off-roading with my friend Inder in his Land cruiser v8 engine since approx. 8 years.

    Unluckily he wont be able to make for Liwa on coming Eid for 4th October due to his family.

    Therefore, i would like to know if anyone can take me and my friend, she also would like to join this drive.

    So if 2 seats are available for her and myself then please let me know.

    Thanking & Wishing Happy Eid in advance!

    Best Regards,

    Tahir
