Birthday girl - May 22, 2010

I don't know who was more excited - Sam because it was her birthday or Patrick trying to give her her present.  He wanted them to be set out for when she woke up.  :)  Patrick had found her this cute shirt - it describes Samantha to a "T"!!

Today's adventure was another wadi drive and a fort at the end of it to explore.  We went up Wadi Hayl to Fort Hayl.  They are fixing it up - so we only got to go into the tower.  Patrick and I went to the top of it to take a peak at the view.

This was a short drive so we went back to Fujairah to visit the museum and a drive around the Fujairah Fort (still being restored - so we couldn't go in).

The afternoon was spent relaxing once again on the beach.  The kids helped Wayne dig a huge hole and then buried Patrick in it!  They did some more snorkling and saw some zebra fish and hermit crabs crawling on the ocean floor.  We did more sea shell collecting and have brought home loads more shells to add to the ever-growing collection! :)

We found many different types of crabs on this trip.

Since it was Samantha's birthday we let her pick the restaurant.  It turned out to be a nice place to have supper.  The food was awesome and the kids had a good time.  The waiter had put the candle we had brought on her desert, so she had a mini birthday cake.  They had slow chocolate milks - of course I had to have a taste to make sure that they were alright.  :)

We had a wonderful weekend.
