Also, the question everyone is wondering: how long since you replaced your cooling system???

How well does the AC work?
Is it enough to keep cool?

Did a radiator flush 2 days ago along with oil and filter change. AC 90 days ago and it pumps out at 58-62 although once it hits over 125-130 it barely keeps up after a long idle.

I'm taking the long route back through the empty quarter for a chance to see different sand and the rumor is that one of the wadi's has a spring in it, if I can find it... Also I have to be careful since the wife is just about 7 months pregnant (it was a surprise) as the other kids are 22 and 18... Who knew that was still possible?

I didn't want to retire anyway...

Best buffet ever..!!!

All you can eat seafood cooked to order and unlimited wine and mixed drinks. All for around $90.

I had a salad.... wink, wink, nudge, nudge

Not sure what that drink was or even if it was a drink (may explain the looks I'm getting)

I have killed two bottles of White and 3 Bourbon & cokes plus a possible flower arrangement... I needed this trip.

Heading to the room and trying to make sure the bidet is not used incorrectly.


For some reason the wife thinks I am not funny....
