Back to June, and our last day in Dubai. We have packed up the house, and fly out from Abu Dhabi on Friday. We have sub-let our rented villa in Dubai (thankfully), and the new family are moving in on the Thursday, so we spend our last night in Dubai at the Fairmont Hotel. After nursery, I drop Kate and tripinos off at the hotel, and then I am off to do a thousand errands on the last day in 45 degree heat.

Meanwhile, Super Sophie pops over to help take everyine swimming in the roof top pool (and hopefully burn through some energy).

And now, in the burning heat and humidity, I have to:

• pick up Tabitha and drop her off at the pet transportation centre


• get back home and oversee the completion of the packing and cleaning


• go to DEWA offices and collect our deposit (its not ready)


• go and meet person who is buying our car


• go the nearest shopping mall to get a certificate from the bank to confirm that the car loan has been repaid 2 years ago


• go back to the car registration centre


• complete the car sale


• get taxi back home


• sign off the removals container (the hallway floor is soaking because the hot humid air has been flowing into the house and condensing on the cold floor).


• get taxi back to the hotel
  

It is a nigtmare to arrive in Dubai, but a whole lot harder to leave. Thankfully, our good friends Andrea and Stephen join us for dinner on our last night. My apologies if i look a little flustered.

Thomas, Zach and Hannah had earlier said goodbye to Amelie, Henry and Noah.
