My Boys Are Here and Pat Is Soon To Follow

So glad to have the boys arrive at Abu Dhabi Airport.
     Jacob and PJ joined me here in Al Ain on January 1st.  After a smooth flight on Saudi Airlines they arrived right on time.  I was so relieved to see them, but I knew they would make it!  We have seen all the malls, the zoo, and took a trip to the top of Jebel Hafeet.  We've also gone to the pool and gotten Jacob enrolled into Manor Hall Private School.  He seems to love it so far, and his Arabic is improving every day.  He has Arabic class every day.  He also takes French twice a week and has a robotics lab each week.  They access lots of information on their iPads - games to reinforce skills, textbook resources, and research.  He has not gotten his iPad yet, but should in the next week or so.

     PJ has been exploring the bus route and made it to the Bawadi Mall using the bus last week.  He's in search for a job, but we are not sure what is available for Americans.
