2014 Bahrain Air Show

Dave and I were invited to the Bahrain Air Show this weekend by Batelco (a local internet/phone group).  You all might remember that the same people invited us to the Formula 1 races in April.  Once again it was a blast and they took such great care of us (especially this pregnant mama)!

The aerial show was awesome and we were able to tour several of the aircraft.  Enjoy the photos!

Enjoying the luxury of one of Gulf Air's private jets.  If anyone has an extra 70$ Million lying around and wants to buy me a birthday gift... this airplane is for sale!

Dave enjoyed himself as well.

These guys were amazing! 

Dave was slightly more interested in work emails... no rest for the wicked.

I know it's sappy, but I love this guy!

A friend of ours was the pilot for DHL; the guys were super impressed with what the huge jet could do.

The First Class Bar on Emirates A380!

One of the first class seats on the Emirates A380. One of these seats is about $8000.  It might be worth it, they were seriously comfy.  

We had a great day!

Bahrain Fort

We've finally managed to get out exploring in Bahrain.  We intentionally saved much of the outdoor activities we wanted to try until winter time as summer is just too hot to spend any amount of time outdoors.

We'd already been to the Fort once for our family photos, but we didn't get much of an opportunity to explore in our previous visit.  This time we loaded up the kids and hit the museum first.  The museum is nicely laid out and a pretty quick visit.  It's just long enough for two small children not to get too bored with looking at rocks and pottery.  There were some skulls in the museum that offered a nice distraction for our fascinated kids.

Overall it was a fun outing, but we're glad we waited until winter to tackle it!
