United Arab Emirates- Abu Dhabi Transfer

Our neighbors (not the ones who constantly watch the dogs, but the ones our dogs constantly bother) are moving to Abu Dhabi. The husband's job transferred him to Abu Dhabi for 3-5 years.... AND, he had a choice whether to go. Both Joseph and I said we would never want to live there, even temporarily. The neighbors just purchased a 2009 porsche and now have to sell it. They are selling pretty much everything, except their double jog stroller. Average temperatures in UAE/Abu Dhabi are about 115 degrees F in the summer months with about 100% humidity. I've researched Abu Dhabi quite a bit since finding out our neighbors are moving there.... The location is beautiful... right on the Arabic Gulf. That said, I still would never move there, even for millions of dollars. I don't think that I could adapt. Plus, I couldn't leave the dogs. Would you move there? If the answer is "yes", how much would someone have to pay you? Are you in the market for a new car? If so, and you want a slightly used porsche, let me know!!! There is also a very blue Volvo wagon for sale, which looks brand new but is a few years old.

I would move anywhere overseas temporarily with Avery before kids if the right opportunity came along. He would too. Luckily, no one asked us to go to Dubai. =) Post-kids, I'm not up for it.
