[Flying Journey]: In the Middle of the World - Dubai

Finally I have mood to write again :) Working on my consistency..

Ok, so this time I was in Dubai for about 8 days, it was quite long trip.. I didn't manage to do Desert Safari, I wish I could.. Didn't visit Abu Dhabi.. O well, I have to keep it until next trip!

But, let me just show you for all the mainstream stuff in Dubai!

Burj Khalifa! 

with Vini & Bene both of them based in Dubai 

I got to know her from interview and we still keep contact. It was really nice of her to pick me up from hotel and she brought me around. It was my first time hang out with her too but we were totally get along really well!  

:) 

See how huge the Aquarium is! 

The following day, I went to visit Burj Khalifa level 124 if I'm not mistaken. It costed me about 200 dirham. It was only to go up, see the Dubai skyline. Nothing more. Well of course, souvenirs shop.  





Night view - I would really love to stay until it's totally dark but I have to follow majority :( 

This was my very last day, so I decided to walk around by myself, took metro, tram and monorail just to get to Palm Jumeirah. I just want to see the palm island which I thought it was going to be something like Sentosa. 
However, after long journey nearly 2 hours, quite disappointed that I couldn't do anything over there. Not even get into the Water Park as it's the limited area (you have to pay!) :( 

When I saw the map actually Burj Al-Arab is nearby and I really want to catch sunset picture over there. Alas, I had promised my friend that I will meet her at Dubai Mall to see the fountain. Too bad, but I hope next trip I will be able to do so. 

Here's the picture, mostly are just view.. :) 

Entering Palm Jumeirah - I was in Monorail 

It was quite a long walk from Tram to Monorail, about 10-15 minutes passing by car park area.  

Amazed with these houses 

 The Atlantis

I didn't take any picture at Palm Jumeirah. Well, when I was there I was thinking to just spend for red bus sightseeing, however the timing wasn't match. If you paid for this service, yes you could see around the Atlantis area. I guess next time I'll do that 

I didn't realize I was sitting in the Gold Class 

Amazing eh? 

I met my friend at Dubai Mall again then we took picture again! I know this trip was like a nonstop being in mall. I could really say that Dubai is kinda expensive or perhaps because I always ate in mall. :(  


 Fountain show 

Most of my picture was taken by Iphone5 and Olympus EPL6. You can see from the picture result actually :) 

'til next destination~
