We had
decided that we would go to Dubai for Jacqui’s birthday and try to cash her
cheque from her school in Kuwait by depositing it in one of their Dubai branch.
When Jacqui left Kuwait in June, she got paid by cheque instead of a direct
deposit to her bank account (???) and it is not possible to cash that cheque
unless you deal with the same bank. Since they have an NBK branch in Dubai, we
will go on Saturday morning to get that money. We therefore left at about 9:30
and drove along the Gulf for a while, then cut inland through the mountains to
end up in the red sand hills of the Dubai area. It was a very picturesque trip.
It took about 6 hours, instead of 5, as we got turned around a bit at the
border crossing in Al Buraimi and while trying to get to the hotel in Dubai. We
went out for dinner at Trader Vic’s and had a very nice meal. It was a good
day.
