Jebel Hafeet

When we went to the airshow in Al Ain, we also stopped off at the mountain there. It's called Jebel Hafeet. It is a beautiful drive up there, and it's hard to believe it's out here. I was quite surprised by the safety walls along the side, in a good way. They were actually there :) The views were amazing on the way up, and even more so on the way down. Apparently the road up the mountain is famous. They use it to test drive Jaguars, Mercedes and it's in several car commercials. At the top there is a look out, a restaurant with rides, of course, why not? It was a little strange actually, it felt a bit like the twilight zone. It's beautiful though isn't it?

  2. Thank you, it is. Hopefully we aren't doing so much damage to the kids we will have mile high therapy bills for this when they grow up :)
