41st National Day!

41st National Day of the United Arab Emirates. We got a nice long weekend for it, and this is how I celebrated this year:

National Day celebrations at my college.  A crazy Irish teacher also decided to join in on the fun!  Love her UAE colored abayya!
Setting up for National Day at the college.  A kids' inflatable slide.  I had to try it out.  One of my students sitting at the top was terrified of sliding down.  If you click on the photo you can make out his scared face behind me!
Emiratis in Dubai sure know how to decorate!
More festive villas!
This family didn't want to pay the 3 Dhm. entrance fee in to the park, so they had their kids climb the fence instead...(Click on the pic)
And then pass the cooler over!
But no pork please!
A view of the Burj Khalifa from the park.
Wow!  An IHOP at Dubai Mall!
