Thursday, December 18th - We're coming home for the holidays

Our week went by pretty quickly. We are so anxious to come home for the holidays. We fly out of Muscat at 5am Friday, get to Dubai at 6, then leave at 10am for Toronto. We get there at around 3:30 (all times being local, with a 9 hour difference between Muscat/Dubai and Toronto).

It has been the first week where we have slept without the AC running. Kinda nice to open up the windows. We finally have all the papers required to get our liquor license. Now the problem is getting it as they are only open until 2 pm. We'll have to wait until Thursday, as we get out of school at noon.We had "sports day" at school on Tuesday. Actually, we weren't really at school as all the activities took place at the Sultan Qaboos Stadium. It was very nice place.

And that does it for my blog for 2014. Merry Christmas to all, and best wishes for the New Year. This blog will be up and running again when we get back to Muscat, early January!
