We're Heading Home

Wow, we're home after an unbelievable trip! We can hardly believe that a month has come and gone and that we are back into the swing of things. We are all thankful to be back at home with our friends and family, and our sweet dog Buster, but miss our "Dubai home" and all of the adventures that we had there.

The plane ride went extremely smooth. We woke up at about 5:00 were on the plane by 8:30 and home by 1:00 in the afternoon, California time. We met some pretty interesting people on the plane and got to watch movies and play some pretty fun video games. The boys were excellent travelers by the way! Upon arrival, we made it through customs quickly and were greeted by our son Matt with a sign and everything!

Once we arrived, we simply have been settling in and are back to work and school tomorrow morning. The whole trip to Dubai was an absolutely wonderful experience, one which will touch all of our lives for years to come. We have come away with a much better understanding of other cultures and have been exposed to countless experiences and memories that will forever leave a mark on our lives.

But where does that leave us now? Our Dubai blog will still be running as we find out more about the destination and get updates from many of the people that we made friendships with back there. Also, our next post will be a listing of everything you need to know if you are going to be traveling to Dubai, so don't miss out on that one!

We also are returning to the Southern California Riviera with a new outlook on this amazing destination which we live in. You can keep up with our family and experiences on our Southern California Luxury Travel Blog, as we rediscover the hidden treasures of our own beautiful home.

Thank you again for your support and for following along with our experience in Dubai! Here is a copy of the Welcome Home sign that greeted us at the airport. It was mounted on gold and burgundy poster board so we could all see it!
