Red Bull Air Race in Abu Dhabi

I've been a slacker in posting... I know, I know. I need to get on it. I am still working on a big post from when my parents were here. Anyhow, this one was a quick and easy post so I figured I might as well push it live now rather than wait until I get around to finishing the other one.

Today we went to the Red Bull Air Races in Abu Dhabi. Dani and Elle each brought a friend or 2 in Dani's case (Laura, Tyler and Ria). We were expecting to sit in stands, not on the beach so we weren't at all prepared, but no worries, we made due! The girls went swimming in their clothes to cool off... it was almost 100. At least there was breeze off the water.

Dani, Tyler and Laura told some folks that they were all sisters of one of the racers. A few people actually wanted their pictures taken with them. It was way too funny! All the girls were into the race. They would run over to the jumbo screen to see who was racing next and cheer for them by name. Even though it was very hot we had such a great time. Oh and I sure hope that they all sleep because we let them try Red Bull.
