2019

Ringing in the new year with the entire family under one roof — not sure what next year will bring so we’re enjoying it while we can. We partied like Chartiers and spent the evening marathoning a survivalist show called Alone — people dropped in Patagonia (solo) with minimal gear, each trying to be the last one standing. We feasted on nachos and guacamole while watching people hardier than us subsist on dandelion greens and the (very) occasional fish. We ran up to the roof at midnight to watch 10 solid minutes of finale quality and quantity fireworks, and then right back to see if one of the adventurers was going to succumb to a spider bite infection (She didn’t. Herbs to the rescue!) We left off at 72 days into the adventure when they were coping with snow and 4 people still hanging on.

And we ended the year with a family photo shoot in the desert. Here’s to 2019.

Happy New Year from Abu Dhabi!
