Mall of the Emirates

That night we went to the mall to the Lebanese restaurant and watched as people skiied at "Ski Dubai"
Our tray of raw meat. Sitting next to the glass of champagne (alcohol is only allowed in restaurants that are attached to hotels) Kim tasting raw kidney. Chewy!!!

Pix of Atlantis

We spent the next day at the newly opened Atlantis Hotel and water park. Strange enough. They had their grand opening on Friday and we were there on Sunday. The place was EMPTY!!! Which allowed us to go on all the rides many times over :-)


Us posing :-) and the view of the ceiling
View from the beach. Notice Burj Al Arab in the distance. (Is that what Sue is looking at?)Yes we could ride camels if we wanted , for a "reasonable" price for sure!
This is either Dani or Kim. I'm too scared of heights to do something like that!
Me in the shark tank!

Okay, I got behind on my "catching up"! I was at Total Immersion. It is a Sign Language program that is very dear to my heart...but that will be discussed later! For now we are still working on November pix when my friends came to visit...

This is where the poor live. Big difference from the rich here!
This is a pic of Abdallah's office. He's working hard even though he's supposed to be on vacation!
Our night out. Mostly people watched, but did have a few drinks!
