Finally, after 3 days in Dubai, I went to the beach for a swim. I really can’t tell if I like or dislike swimming, but I know that it is kind of healthy and there are not too many as good opportunities to do it.

I really should go into that water, right?
When I should describe ideal conditions for swimming, it would be warm but not hot, no direct sun, no or only little wind, a clean and nearly empty beach and clear and nearly empty, well-tempered and quiet water. And in this morning, all of that came together, so I swam for 40 or 50min, walked to and fro the beach to get dry and rode back home.

makes “Vienna” a veterinary clinic more trustworthy or more fancy?
After getting my blog up to date, I had started to cut videos, the last done before was day 043. But something is wrong with moviemaker. ☹ Sometimes, it doesn’t work at all, sometimes it crashes and loses changes, sometimes some clips become unreadable for it and all in all it is more time-consuming than it would be anyway. I had to use many tricks to finish one video…
After that, it now was 11:30 instead of 10 or so (if everything would have worked well), I went to some bank offices (none of them takes IRR and none of them would hand out $ in cash) and they sent me to a money exchange, but they only later gave me $ after I went to another place with ATM to get dirham.
I continued my cutting “fight” with movie maker, also had a sleep in the afternoon and as a highlight of the day, I was invited to join the family for another of their nice and healthy meals, complemented by an Cashew-based vegan ice-cream as a dessert.
After that, Doron, Marvin and I tried several VoIP calls because of Doron’s birthday but ended by writing a few lines, Dubai blocks such activities for unknown reasons.
