Dune bashing desert safari…. An hour or so from Dubai sees the low scrubland disappear and the proper desert begins; wave after wave of rolling acres of sand dunes stretching up to the horizon…. soon the sandy roller coaster ride started with lots of screaming n excitements….. it was like a therapeutic dune bashing on a wildly bucking drive through the wilderness….The sand dunes, rising and falling ahead of our four-wheel drive, may look like a soft touch, yet hit at high speed, strange things happen!
Never knew driving on sand can be high adrenaline, thrilling activity and an adventure in itself, combining roller coaster ride with the challenge of remaining mobile on the shifting surface. It is quite amazing to look towards the horizon and see sand dune after sand dune. In the end, it was more than just an adventure; it was a testament to the enduring human desire to push boundaries and experience the extraordinary.
…setting sun in the middle of an Arabian desert… stranded deflated car adding to the eventual thrill.. leads to a amazing evening of sands n sounds of music n gentle sway of the belly dancers in a Bedouin desert camp… body tattoo and Arabic humus…
A story I would carry with me for a lifetime—a story of sand, adrenaline, belly dancers and the unquenchable thirst for adventure.
