Dubai, UAE 6 Aug - 8 Aug 2009

After arriving in Dubai, Mutaz picked us up and we headed to Reem for some mezze and shisha. We met Deep, Panos and Candace there. Delish!

The next day, Chris, Mutaz and I headed to the Aquaventure Waterpark on the Palm Island. It was really fun, complete with waterslides and a lazy pool, it was a great way to spend the day!

This slide made me scream, but I'm very glad I did it!

After the waterpark, we went home, changed and headed to dinner at another all you can eat and drink place. The food = so-so, the drinks however were fantastic and after all of that, we went to Boudoir for an amazing evening with our friends.
I promise our next adventure won't be Dubai :)

Dubai, UAE 25 June - 27 June 2009

We spent the weekend in Dubai to visit with our friends, and on the way we found out our friend Panos was in the hospital. All I have to say is, wash your hands, and if something seems weird. GET IT CHECKED OUT!

Mutaz picked us up and we went to this place called Lotus 1, where he heard Paris Hilton was at (she was filming her My New BFF show in Dubai in June. Why? I don't know). Obviously she wasn't there, so we had some appetizers and drinks, then headed home. Unfortunately this was the same night we found out Michael Jackson passed away. :( RIP MJ.

The next day, we went to visit Panos in the hospital, ate lunch, went to the Dubai Mall. We went back home, where we changed and got ready for dinner, which was at a place called Spice Island - all you can eat AND drink. It sounds awesome - because it was. Then we went to out to Boudoir and danced/drank the night away.

Saturday was pretty much a waste of a day, we woke up at 3pm, packed, went to see Panos, went to dinner with his parents who had flown in from Saudi, and then we (Chris, myself, and parents) went to the airport to catch our flight.
