Usually, one would go to bed early after having packed his luggage considering that one has planned a 24 hour trip to Africa the next day.
Well, I started my African experience in a slightly different way – I went out until 3 in the morning, just having 3-4 beers and surprisingly woke up the next morning with one of the worst hangovers of my entire life and my luggage still unpacked.
I managed ...
... the size of Sheik Mohammad's brother's palace. We drove along one 10 foot wall that last for miles. Upon arriving in the desert, they proceed to racing up and down sand dunes in our 4-Runner (complete with roll bars). Going at nearly 40 mph, the car is fish tailing all over the place and it is was pretty impressive that they were able to keep the truck from flipping over a couple of times. Once we arrived at our destination at a desert ...
Dubai, United Arab Emirates zsimmons... snow, and put down the board to strap one foot on so we could make our way over to the lift. Neither of us could work out how to put it on! After 5-10min of trying all sorts of stuff and trying to get some idea from the skiers around us, we finally worked it out and moved over to the lift. Up we went and decided to get off half way. Since neither of us had snow boarded before we figured it would be the best start. How wrong we were! Right at the start of the second section was a steep ...
Dubai, United Arab Emirates rosswilson82... think I've ever been that early for anything and Rod certainly hasn't... So after a very long wait, we were finally off! OMG it was soo squishy on the plane. The seat in front of me was practically on top of me and it was very difficult to move. Unfortunatley neither Rod nor I managed any sleep for the entire flight (I may have dozed a couple of times, but probably about 1/2 an hours worth all up) so it really dragged on. I spent a fair bit of time ...
Dubai, United Arab Emirates katieandrod... traveler in the old ages, and in homage to him, the mall is divided into different courts, each one representing a country and its theme. The mall is amazing, the architecture is superb. We had Darth's birthday lunch at Soy, a Thai restaurant near the gardens. Then we had our coffee fix at Costa Coffee. We headed home to prepare for the New Year festivities. We dropped b y several groceries on our way home, and I cooked pancit. We had cake, pancit, crispy pata ...
Sharjah, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates inyangHello, Well we arrived in Dubai on Sunday evening. First highlight was getting upgraded to a 3 bedroomm apartment from a studio! On Monday we went on a city tour. Hmmm this is the third time i've been here and i haven't really seen the main sights, well this has made up for it. We went to the Dubai Museum, Ancient Fort, Gold Souk and ...
Dubai, United Arab Emirates sheenaangela... And for ten thousand dollars a night, I would hope so! That said, I have never seen less elegant interior design in terms of color, plastic, and plywood. I was particularly partial to the faux-gold panelling...at least, I believe it was faux. I did not make any jokes about this at the time. Here are the photos as promised. I wish I taken more, but as ...
Dubai, United Arab Emirates holyrockthrower... Mumbai docked here to load and unload cargo. They aren't that big and don’t look seaworthy for such long journeys. We first walked through the Spice Souq which smelled great with big sacks filled with spices, nuts and dried fruit. Next we walked through the Gold Souq, lots of little jewellery shops. We wandered down little side streets and ...
Dubai, United Arab Emirates hilaryramsey... plenty of Arabs in white robes and red checked cloths on their heads and women in black with their faces covered.
We arrived in Dubai at 9.30pm local time (12.30am Thai time). Dubai has a massive beautiful airport but it took us an hour to ...
... Giving up I took my third tour of the Centre grounds. There are 16 closed top lozenge shaped treble units, each part of each treble is measuring approximately 12 by 14 metres and is in itself a self contained unit with water, dens and appropriate cage furniture. A 12 by 14 metre cage is decent by any standards but many of these are opened out into their full length of around 36 metres. Then there are around 10 closed top double units which measure the same. These house ...
