A Kiwi Christmas =)







For Christmas, I was kindly invited to a holiday celebration near Jumeirah beach. It was an all day Christmas party thrown by several New Zealanders & South Africans who have moved to Dubai over the years. They had an outdoor party and had a bunch of people over who were also away from their families for Christmas.

It was a delicious meal since one of the party hosts' mother had been a professional chef for 15+ years and she put together a big feast for everyone. There was ALOT of food: goulashes, beef stews, chicken and pineapple curry, paella, and Linsensuppe of course! Our chef lived in Germany for many years so we were treated with alot of yummy German cuisine as well.

It was a great day which ended with movies in the rain and present swapping. My lovely friend Ra got herself a new roomie, a blue japanese fighter fish. Welcome to the fam Toshi! I scored a bottle of New Zealand wine - a huge deal since I dont have a liquor license to go out and stock up! woo.

I hope everyone had a very happy Christmas. thanks for all the holiday messages, i really appreciated them! As you can see, I was super lucky to get adopted into these holiday festivities so i was well taken care of! hugs to everyone:)
