The UAE is celebrating Eid with a 5 day long weekend! So I am making the most of it by escaping the desert sands for a quick getaway to a little town called Hatta nestled in the mountain ranges on the Dubai and Oman borders.

Apart from capturing a lovely time lapse of Hatta Dam I also clocked up some all important flying time with the drone. With only 2 more working days until the big trip to Canada I need to get ready if I am going to be able to use it in all its glory!

I also whipped up another little vlog. Along the way to Hatta we stopped off to fly the drone over this amazing red desert sands location I am calling Tree-Topia. How those trees survive in the desert is beyond me.
