Morning Drive in The Desert -928

Sometimes I forget how good this car is sometimes.

been out messing with one of those new fangled video camera things.

no idea how to record sound yet, as all i got was wind noise, so have added some music instead.

I thought deer were a problem in Texas but a camel! Now that is a whole different story.
Awesome video and thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing, Dictys. Really nice sun-set drive and very nice reflections on the body panels, your 928 is looking good and going even better!

Nice one!

Was that Jebel Hafidh [Al Ain] in the background?

You would think they'd put the camel crossing signs where people don't drive . . .. . How do I get a job there, it is beautiful.

Yes, VERY NICE indeed.
And the music is very good too.
And I was wondering what the heck was in the middle on the road at 2:12!
Camels. Cool!

Wow, was wondering what the first strange object was! BTW Roger, they have lots of camels in Texas, don't see them wandering the road, however.
Beautiful drive, great road, little traffic. Priceless!
