Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine I would be moving to a foreign country to live, let alone a country in the Middle East. Over the 2009 Christmas and New Year’s holidays, my husband Roger and I discussed what we wanted the next part of our life to be like. He thought that before retiring, he would like to do one more airport project but only if he could find something very interesting. I half-jokingly agreed that would be fine but could he try for an exotic location? As usual, Roger came through and soon we were headed to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. This blog is a recap of our "leap-of- faith" wanderings around the Middle East and beyond. We joyfully share these expat experiences.

Veteran's Day Boomer Blogger Carnival #285

Happy Veterans Day to all the American men and women who have served in our armed services protecting our great country. This week Boomers are writing about the leadership principals learned by our veterans, how we boomers have weathered the recent storms - the "Recession Storm" and "Super Storm Sandy," and how the 2012 election will effect the American consumer.

For fun, ditch the pies on Thanksgiving and try an incredible Chocolate Molten Cake while you enjoy some "arm chair" travel to Turkey for a look at a collection of the most amazing Byzantine mosaics and frescoes at the 13th century Chora Church.
