Weekend Fun

We continue to try and do something new or visit somewhere we haven't been been at some point during the weekend. On Friday, we went to the Jumeriah Open Beach. Like the other public beaches we have visited, this one is free but it has its own jogging and bike trail built into the sand. It is great. There is the sea, a large sandy area, the jogging and bike path and then a little more sand. It is great for a run on the beach (without actually having to run in the sand) and perfect for pushing the stroller.

Yesterday we went to lunch at Barasti inside the Le Meridien Mina Seyahi Beach Resort and Marina. This outdoor bar/restaurant overlooks the Arabian Sea and the resort's pool area. It was great for a beer and burger and reminded me of being on vacation in Mexico...not bad for a Saturday.
