That being said, I did have a pleasant week this past week complete with good food, good rugby, and good friends.
This weekend was the 40th Dubai Rugby Sevens, a tournament of national rugby teams playing 14 min games (7 min halves) in an effort to be the last team standing. I have never even watched rugby, but I can say now that it is quite an entertaining and strategy-fueled sport. It was quite an enjoyable day, I went with 5 or 6 friends nad met up with more at the venue.
I spent today on the beach enjoying the 78 degree temperature and refreshing clear blue waters of the Persian Gulf.
This evening, watched a superb football clinic put on by Man United who handed West Ham a defeat in the freezing English rain. Goals were scored b my man Rooney, Gibson (a home-grown, promising talent), Scholes, and Valencia. Each goal was crafted beautifully, a true mixture of superb ball handling and vision.
The week coming up will be start my campaign to organize my life back into the few bags I arrived with at the beginning of July.
I hope everyone back home and abroad are doing well and again, wish you all a very happy holiday season!
Cheers,
Brian
