So it's day 2 in dubai and we have a full day ahead of us....we pre booked the burj khalifa in the uk as we read that the q's can be quite long :( we decided to use the metro to get us to the dubai mall (where we had to collect our tickets, and also the biggest mall !) on arrival we were clearly not prepared for the size of this place! It was huge so many floors so many turns just a maze! It's safe to say we got lost! But eventually found the entrance to the burj and began to make our way up.......
What a journey we went up 124 floors! And at the top what amazing views, luke was so impressed :) dubai looks quite compact from the ground but from that height it look empty! They had a klidescope that showed you past, present and current views!the past ones were the most impressive there was just nothing there it has all been built up from scratch and looks amazing :) the burj was not busy at all which allowed us to take many pics all in all a lovely experience.....
......We returned down to earth where we were lucky enough to see the fountain show, we then ventured into the mall to have a browse and to go to the aqaurium which was huge, it was then time for a late lunch at one of our favourites the rainforest cafe ! Meal was great and the menu was different which was nice. A very busy day for us in dubai but we enjoyed every Minute of it.
When we returned to the hotel we tried to FaceTime the family but failed :( don't know why but we were disappointed wanted so much to talk to our boo"s (chester and Millie! ) and the parents. Oh well thank god for modern technology so we can still keep in touch other ways.
