Eid Holidays

What a shame - in spite of being a govt setup, we were given just two days holidays- Monday and Tuesday that is. A call in the morning from KK and we were soon heading towards UAQ- aqua park. We were a bit taken aback by the big crowd at the entrance, but noticed a small group of people around the exit area. It turned out that families with Kids were being issued ticket there. So i just a few minutes we were in. Was my first experience in an aqua park- i always though you need to be a good swimmer to be able to enjoy them and more importantly handle your kid playing in the water. Wasn't very difficult and the experience also helped me get over my fear of water. Now I have to seriously consider learning swimming and get gopika to learn it too. i have to admit hygiene levels in these park especially during such peak days is really pathetic. So i guess we are lucky if we are out of it without major problems.

Went for the desert safari on Tuesday. Cant believe this was the first time for many of us considering the number of years (10-15) we have been here! The drive was good. But didn't like the way people have to queue for their food. We had planned for the overnight stay and i turned out that we were the only group doing that. After the usual safari crowd left, we got the camp coordinator to arrange for some of the dune quads for us and we has some good time trying them out. A few rounds of dumb-charades and before we realised it was 12 midnight. The generator at the camp that support all the lighting is turned off at 12 and there we were in the middle of the night- looking at the sky and trying to get some sleep in the sleeping bags. I don't think any of us- guys slept well till early morning- by which time the women were up and enjoying the snoring jugalbandi we were getting into.

A quick breakfast and we were dropped back to Dubai. The camp coordinator was a local and was very good. he also seemed to be well aware of things happening in Dubai. my office was working, but i decided to take the day off.

And now back in office. Good that we are told we can leave office early.

How can i wipe out windows xp from my laptop and reinstall windows Me -the laptops native software?
I suffer with recently bought a familiar laptop that is old. The himself I had bought it from had installed windows xp on it, orderly though it at came with windows Me. I fall short of to expunge the windows xp because it runs slows on the laptop because it takes up more thought than the windows Me would. Also I want to massacre windows xp because it is an illegal copy. So when I tried to ass updates on it, windows would not introduce updates because the windows xp is not genuine.
