Heading for the great escape.
Get a car that does more than 12MPH would be a start.

A sneak peek at what awaits Minnie on a trip to Dubai...
I hope she doesn't get caught having lunch with Donald or Goofy without Mickey in certain emirates... she'll be stoned to death!!!
lol.. :ROFLOL::lol::ROFLOL:
I believe I caught you with typo
12mpg perhaps, since I'm certain most yank tanks are quite capable of reaching the 12mph milestone.
As long as you stay within the tourist area, dress would not be an issue. I actually know a woman, and her 20 year old daughter, who have travelled there with their husband/father. They sent me photos, and both were wearing tanks with spaghetti straps, and shorts. (They have the figures for them.
) They wore bikinis in the pool, etc without any incidents.BTW, the landscaping/ buildings are beautiful.
However, they did draw the line on moving there while the husband/dad was working on the project, even though he spent a lot of time commuting, and the company offered him a lot of money to do so.
So, in short, as long as you stay in the tourist areas, you'll be fine. I wouldn't do a lot of sightseeing in the countryside, however.
Also, as an aside, anyone who knows a golf fanatic knows that they would spend 16 hrs/day golfing on vacation, if they could get away with it, so lack of activities wouldn't be an issue. :lol:
And the ski slope is not much for US skiers; it is more akin to the bunny slopes at most ski resorts. (At least that was my impression from photos)

Didn't they kill him off as a martyr ?
I don't think they're familiar with Kenny from South Park.

It will NEVER EVER get a penny out of me !!
i personally dont care why americans are hated so badly, that is a whole arguement itself. but i do find it funny so many countries can hate the united states but we're so popular when it comes to tourism. you would think nobody would want to come here the way some countries feel about americans
we're so popular that foreign tourist numbers on a whole are on a downswing.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) March 10, 2008 - The number of foreign visitors to the United States set a record in 2007 for the first time since before the September 11 attacks on the United States, the U.S. Commerce Department said on Monday.
Foreign visitor numbers totaled 56.7 million, surpassing the previous record of 51.2 million set in 2000, U.S. Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez said.
"At a time when our economy is sluggish in other parts, such as the housing market, it's great to have a bright spot like tourism that is adding growth and energy and employment to our economy," Gutierrez said.
Foreign visitors also spent a record $122.7 billion in the United States last year, a rise of more than 50 percent from a low set in 2003 in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks, Gutierrez said.

Never Happen
Well This looks all good but it will never happen.
Not that big a scale anyway.
They say it will be finished in 2018.
I bet you it wont happen until 2038.
Buy then I will be an old man and still won't care
Why go to the copy when you can go to the original.
Disney Rules...
