The dust has settled and the pace of life in the Rub Al Khali has
returned to normal. Camels can now go back to leisurely wandering the
desert, the herders and farmers have to wait for another 12 months until
they can once again sit on top of a dune and watch the adrenaline packed

Apologies for the lateness of this update but it was a very very long day
yesterday and most of us didn't get into our bed until 2am this morning.
Yes I know we're slacking but it's been a long week and the appeal of an
