So the first stop is dubai....... Now after reading about certain rules and regs for dubai we were a bit shall we say paranoid about getting arrested! Especially after reading that staying in the same room whilst unmarried was a crime ! As well as holding hands, kissing and drinking in public, so different to our western world. But having said that we were still super excited.
Upon arriving to dubai we looked like such tourists...... Big backpacks, bottles of water, a map! So naturally we were almost conned into getting into a "taxi" that was Infact a very expensive private car! Fortunately we stood our ground and said no! And got in ur average taxi..... Where we still got over charged :(
We arrived to our hotel... Suite hotel mall of emirates and it was lovely we were pleasantly surmised as we had picked the second to first cheapest hotel! We had a lovely room, there was a roof top pool and a lovely breakfast being served, also free wifi what more can you want from a 3 star hotel! It also had a nandos attached..... Bonus! We made our way to the roof top pool where we met the rest of the day .
We decided to take a wonder in the evening to the mall of emirates for dinner! We were excited to see there was a ihop! Now I no we should we trying the local cuisine but who can resist the ihop! Meal was lovely but we were so tired so its off to bed for a long nap, for tomorrow we visit the burj khalifa :)
