Attraction in the Northern Emirate

I was checking an on-line encyclopaedia in a small Internet facility when I heard the lady next to me laughing. She was a little embarrased to be laughing so loudly, so she explained that she was engaged in a really funny chat program with a friend.

I asked her what had brought her to the UAE, and found out she was here with her husband and children for the water-skiing (she never told me what was so funny). Her husband is coach of the National Team from her country, and her daughter is on the team. The team used to go to the US during the December holiday break, but the UAE is much cheaper and is also warmer.

Her husband and children are quite busy with the water skiing, but she says she's quite bored, so she's spending a lot of her time chatting with friends from back home. But at least she seems to be enjoying the chat.

And, she says, her country's Water-Skiing team is in the Top 10.
