A short trip to Dubai to visit my brother & sis in law.....

Well I arrived in Dubai six hours later a little worse for the wear perhaps, but mostly due to the fact that I was stuck in the middle seat next to a rather large women who insisted on flinging her shawl in my face the whole six hours. Seriously. Sometimes I wonder if people are even aware that we'…

Last weekend before we leave on Aug 1. Friends here are sending stuff for friends in UK. Trying to sort that out.... It's such a busy time in UK in the 'summer'. Since summer hasn't been officially declared on account of the wet weather and the flood situation, we're thinking of hiring a cano…

Well, my number one objective during my stay here in Dubai was to head to the magnificent and world-famous Mall of the Emirates. Why? To ski of course! After sandboarding in the desert, I wanted to try it on snow. In Dubai, that's no problem at all. Mark the British guy, a guy named Ridwon f…

A lone trip down the Peninsular of Southeast Asia with a stopover in Dubai on the way. After spending a day on the beach in Dubai I hired a car and drove to Hatta, a small desert town in the Hajar Mountains where I soaked up life outside of the big city in the UAE. Then I flew to Bangkok and spent …

On my way, down to Dar es Salaam, I had a 7 hours stop in DXB. So, enough time for taking some pictures!Well, the Dubai International Airport, was, like I expecteded it. A lot of steel, glass and marble....perfect playground for me, and my camera;)

The only large mall in Dubai that we had yet to explore was Eisa’s favorite, Wafi Mall.  Since he had returned to Dubai to meet with some business associates and spend the day with us, we walked around Wafi (Kyle actually “Heeled” like a pro) and ate a light Italian lunch.  Upon lea…

Luckily I know where the McD’s is--or at least one of them--at the mall. Is it at all possible to prepare food in this part of the world without spices? I’m just sayin’. . . Took a very smooth ride on a dhow to get some shots of the models in front of the Burj al-Arab, but because of how tal…

Flew from Manchester to Dubai. Felt really lonely and nervous at the airport, hadn't really felt that before. Flight was amazing. Emarites airline is luxury. Food was good, watched shedloads of movies and kinda relaxed into the trip. Dubai airport is the most modern busy place I've ever seen. Eve…

One of our ports was Dubai in United Arab Emirates.  I had one day to enjoy that I didn't have duty.  So a group of us decided to take a trip to go Swim with the Dolphins.  Wow,  what fun that was.  I was so scared at first even though the water was clear.  It was salt…

Vielen Dank an dieser Stelle fuer die zahlreichen guten Wuensche, die Schutzengel und die kreativen Abschiedspraesentli! Ich habe mich sehr darueber gefreut und das Abschied nehmen fiel mir nicht immer leicht.  Nach 6 Stunden Flug und 1 Stunde schlaf bin ich nun fuer eine Nacht in der Wu…

Trip To UAE

Company sponsored 3-day trip to Dubai.

We had to stop in Dubai for our connecting flight from Newcastle to Singapore so it made sense to stay there for a couple of days. We did alot in those 2 days, including dune bashing, a desert safari, camel riding and even a skydive...
