Well sorry for belated Trip report but I think site was under Maintenance or some server issue but thats resolved now so here is my version of Trip Report.
I left home at 07:00 PM aiming to meet everyone at Gas Station, but thanks to traffic I missed them, so I went straight to the camp area ( or atleast i wished for). so Following google Maps on my phone and I landed somewhere else :) so Quick call to Bu Salim recommended to Turn the radio on and re enter the co ordinates, as soon as I turned the radio on I could hear Cheif and Abu Jimmy so I was sure that I was somewhere nearby, and Guess what I was on the opposite site of Camp site, so I had two options 1. Swim across and get to the camp site ( bad choice) 2. Drive around and find way to camp site.
I could hear everyone on the radio that people were struggling to find the camp site but convoy with Abu Jimmy and other got there and I am still lost.
finally I got close to the camp area but still can not see my Fellow almosters :) Thanks to ISkandar who generously offered to come to the road and take me from there but I saw him before the road so it was all good.
Then I met with my fellow almosters and which is always a good thing, everyone was enjoying themselves in peaceful night under the stars and bon fire and karak :)
And then all of a sudden a Nissan Petrol wiht all the fancy lights joined the group and everyone rushed to the car because we all could smell BBQ :)
thanks to Bu Salim ( m_Alshamsi) for an awesome food and chit chat.
After the food some of Almosters turned into Marines and went for swimming. ( I believe)
Unfrotunately I had to rush back to Dubai because I had job, so I had to end my trip there and ending my trip report here.
In summary, it was great to see everyone ( abu jimmy, iskandar, al khatib, lamboo, chief, nancy, and others)
Thanks for Al shamsi for great food ( I missed breakfast though) maybe nexttime :)
