Ladies Night Out!!

I have been waiting to post this blog so I could include a photo but I haven't received it yet so I thought I'd better write before I forgot. I will post the photo however as soon as I receive it. Last Wednesday, myself and four other ladies from our apartment decided to go out. We had seen each other at the pool, play area, and around the common area outside and Ann and I got up "enough courage" to say..."Let's go out!" Well, it's all history from there and we are going to make this a monthly outing. Our group included, Ann from London 37, Aysun from Turkey 30, Zeina from Paris 36, and Nina from Lebanon 33. All of the ladies speak two to three languages except me of course...(I do however speak a little German from camp as a kid & a little Spanish from being a teacher of various Hispanic kids). Their English skills are all pretty good. Some are more comfortable speaking fluently than others. Zeina and I are the only stay at home moms while Nina and Ann have full-time live in maids/nannies. They all have children except Aysun..and after all of our stories, we may have scared her a bit!! Ha ha... We walked to the new "Address Hotel" (OMG...just gorgeous!!!) for cocktails poolside and then hit the Mango Tree at Souk Al Bahar. We had yummy Thai food for dinner. We are going to take turns planning the evening. Aysun is on for November! I look forward to our many nights out together. It's just amazing to think I sat around a table with four ladies from truly, all over the world, and yet we still all have so much in common!! We are all women of course and have similar interests!! We chatted about kids, nail salons in town, hair dressers, make-up, where we shop, daycares, what to do around town, our families, and just about everything else. You name it, we chatted about it and it was a great "Ladies Night Out!"
