This my first time to write a report of a trip as I really got something interesting to say..

we gathered in albadayer shops and we left on time heading to ghost town in almadam area..almost half of the route was gangnam style..sry I mean almost4x4 old school style and it was interesting

when we reached there I was really surprised as it was my first time there and unfortunately we haven't seen any ghosts..they were probably out for a party (they didn't leave us the coordinates)

then we went back to albadayer and our camp was close to the shops..we prepared our tents once we reached and we had very nice BBQ (thx Abu Jimmy) and chit chat around the fire..after that I went with Alnaqbi to the big red to watch the suicide guys and when we came back most of the guys went to sleep already

I spent some time around the fire drinking Hamdan's karak..after while I decided to go sleep so I went to my tent..I opened the door then I noticed that there's something breathing inside with a weird sound..I was like should I open the light or avoid the surprise!! But I did it and I found out....!!! No aliens or ghosts..it was just alfalasi sleeping in my tent

i usually can't sleep with someone next to me since I'm still single (and available also) and I didn't know that alfalasi is fully modified (twin turbo, full exhaust system programmed and re-mapped by Motec..simply the sound was like the modified Nissan patrol VTCS (rattaa taa taa taaaa...boom) I still believe aliens or ghosts are still nicer to sleep with...:019:

note: it's currently 5 am and I'm trying to sleep!!

Ahhhh.... That's what it was! I was on the other side of the camp and blamed the quads for Al Falasi's snoring! ;-)

You did forget to mention those that got stuck in Ghost Town, all pulled down and sideways by some "half woman - half goat"... What I definitely saw we're bats! And lots of them! I didn't know there were bats in this region.

It was my first Intermediate night trip and I loved it!

The drive it self was amazing , the camp was such fun . but , isn't it always fun to be with Almost4x4 ?, what i would really want to speak about , is the " Ghost Town " , guys this place really gives me the creeps , a deserted village in the midnight , what was i thinking ? , to kill the fear , i decided to go inside one of those villas , ( by the car ofcourse ) , and going through the gate cost me my pole flag and night flash light only . i was happy that i went out safe without any " up normal encounters ".

Thanks to Almost4x4 for providing such a unique experience .
What goes around , comes around .

The drive to Ghost Town was definitely a different adventure ......... the track our lead marshall Al Khatib took to ghost town was routed thru Area 53 which is always fun specially in the night time ....... plus with the weather ...... it was definitely a good stress release for a long week of work ......

We knew that we were near ghost town when Bu Salem instructed everyone over the radio to turn off all the extra fog lamps and run with the normal stock lights ...... the convoy definitely got darker plus my convoy buddy Falasi literally turned off all his lights as we proceeded to enter ghost town .......

The feeling of driving into a deserted town in the middle of the desert in the middle of the night is definitely something you wont forget ...... i had that feeling that someone was looking out the windows of the abandoned villas .......

a few guys tried to be adventurous within the walls of ghost town where in madam desert ghost caught them bellied on top of the low concrete walls ........

it was definitely all fun ...... a very big thank you to the amount of BBQ, kabab, hotdogs, hummus and whatever else we stuffed in our kubus that evening .......

winter is definitely here and we urge all of you almosters to join us in the bbq and camp trips arranged by the marshals ......

good food and good mood all the way!!!
