Desert Safari Tour



We went for the desert safari tour on Friday. Over here, Friday is week-end instead of Saturday. I was a real exciting tour, the driver really drived the 4WD (Toyota Land Cruiser) to reach its maximum limit.

They will only start the journey when they are in a group of 5 to 10. They do not travel alone in the desert.



After about half and hour cruising in the desert, we stop down and wait for sunset to come. This is also time for the vehicle to take good rest.


Unfortunately, one of the machine broke down. The driver has to replace the tyre.



This is the first time in my life to see camel in the desert, it is definitely different from what I have seen on zoo.

After sunset, we went to the camp for our dinner, and there are many types souvenir are sold here. To me, I found this is the most special one. Of course I bought one for my self.

The artist put the sand (coloured sand) into the bottle to drawing sand picture in the small bottle.



After the dinner, there is belle dancing performance. She is a well trained dancer, all of us were very enjoy with the performance.


At night, the desert is quite and beautiful, you can even hear the sound of someone talking at about 500 meters away.



Just sitting in the middle of the desert and enjoy the beauty part of the desert. But it is definitely not a good idea to stay here for long.

I like the second picture... the cloud looks so beautiful :)

Belly dancing? woohoo... must be really interesting to see it live.

Hows' the weather temperature in the dessert? Heard that during the night is very cold. Is it humid or dry climate?

The whether at night for this month will be just nice, about 25C, because winter is coming in Europe. But later it will become cooler. I heard from my colleagues who came last month that the whether was hot during Ramadhan month, even at night.

The environment is very dry, because it rains few times in a year only.

We find many flies around, don't know why. Their local people said it is normal in desert.
