Spring Break as a staycation without having to stay on one's own place is pretty amazing. It was a change to not fly anywhere and just fill up the Jeep and drive to the city. For those who don't live in a larger city like Abu Dhabi, having the opportunity to enjoy a city is pretty remarkable and one we took full advantage of!
We ate and we ate and we ate! But more importantly we played! Abu Dhabi is full of beaches and water sports and we were able to take full advantage of them! We spent a full day at Al Bateen with B's Auntie. What a lovely beach! It was quiet with plenty of parking and space to really just enjoy the weather!
Then we spent two days at Yas Waterworld! Now we, as a single mom and child of 6, love this park. The lifeguards are pretty amazing and we are both able to enjoy the rides. There is nothing like having your daughter drag you around the waterpark to go on slides and tube rides and everything else they have to offer. She was so excited! She is just getting tall enough to be able to enjoy all of these rides. Plus now when she's in the wave pool she is able to go deeper then ever before and has no desire to use the tube. We were able to jump waves, she learned to body surf. All makes for an amazing adventure!
The week really did fly by with all the activities. But we also were able to make some new dishes and work towards just being active and enjoying our time with friends. Each and every vacation should leave you with wanting more, not being overdone with it but by leaving a good taste in your mouth. And this one most definitely did!
