The last few days have been quite full with socializing and enjoying the free events on offer in the city. So, I will try to catch up here a bit.
I got my haircut and highlighted, so I feel better with my hair as it had grown quite a bit.
Then, I met my friend and we had lunch at the mall. Then, we saw “The Rum Diary“, which was a pretty entertaining film. After that we shopped a little bit and then headed home. I was pretty tired, but decided since it was holiday, I should go out to the free music on the beach.
It was totally worth it! Wyclef Jean was awesome and the other acts before were pretty entertaining as well.
The next day was a bit rough as I was pretty tired, but I met some friends for lunch and had a nice long chat over coffee with another friend. Then, I went for a much deserved and needed 4-hour spa treatment at Chi, The Spa in the Shangri-la’s Qaryat Al Beri area. This may be my new favorite place to go for some pampering.
From there, I went back down to the Beats on the Beach to see the acts for the second day. Sadly, none were as good as the first day. Still, it was good to get out to enjoy the event and meet friends. However, I was so tired that it was nice to just go home a little early.
So, that’s my catch up for the last official days of holiday. The weekend events are uploading as I write. π
