Now I am in Abu Dhabi and I am going to tell you what I have been doing so far in this country. Well, I went on a dessert camp, and when I was at the dessert camp I went in a jeep and drove around in the sand dunes, it was soooo fun, it was like a roller coaster. After that we went to a camel farm, and we got to see the camels and even got to ride one of them. One of the camels loved my sister Molly so much so that he started to lick her face.
