This is the month when we have loads of celebrations. 2nd May, Jette Turned 40
3rd May, Jette and Benny celebrated 10th Wedding Anniversary
4th May, Mie celebrated her 7th birthday
On the 11th, Dubai had a visit from
Harlem Globetrotters, which we were lucky
enough to get Court Side Tickets for.
We arrived at the Al Nasr Sports Club in fine time to see the teams arrive,
and get a shot of the bus (someone was a little too slow on trigger to get the
players on the way in)
This is how all sports events should be viewed, front row at the
court. Eventhough someone looks a bit unhappy with the entire thing, we had a
great evening, with some serious good ballplaying, but also some gags to keep
the younger viewers entertained.
First in came the Nationals, the team the Globetrotters are
playing
Then came Globie, the mascot of Harlem Globetrotters, preparing us for the
arrival of the Harlem Globetrotters
First on the agenda was a Globetrotter classic, the circle
warm-up, played to the tones of "Sweet Georgia Brown" an all time Globetrotter
classic
Then we had a couple of hours of impressive ball handling, fun,
games, and gags. Yes - he really is jumping over the referee, dunking the ball.
It was a great evening with plenty of WOW and fun and games for
all ages.
