After 9 freaking months, I'M HOOOOOOME. <3

Yes, 9 months of sun, heat and orange-coloured dust. XD

I went home last October 2015 for two weeks, and realized that 14 days won't just cut it, especially since the Philippines has around 7,107 islands!

Dubai Heritage Sites

It's The Cultural Thing
Heritage Sites
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
-----------------------------------

Entrance fee is usually (1) 3 AED, or (2) FREE.

Just make sure that you abide by their times and rules. Respect the place because it is something that the Emiratis are very proud of as a nation-- and it's kind of hard not to.

What some people think it is:

Desert Safari Trip

But, actually, it's these...

Dubai Ice Rink

----------------------------------------
Toe-pick! :D
The Dubai Mall
Dubai, United Arab Emirates

----------------------------------------

Accurate details can be found in Dubai Ice Rink official website.

The gist:
(1) Entrance fee will vary depending on what time you want to skate.
(2) It can get crowded, so I suggest you go there before everybody else does.
(3) Elevation Burger. Yum.

Going to Dubai Mall is pretty straight forward. Hop on a red-line train (don't forget your NOL Card!) bound for UAE Exchange Station; get off Dubai Mall/Burj Khalifa Platform, walk 10 minutes towards the mall and walk another 10 minutes towards the Ice Rink. 

You have the option of pre-booking online via its official website. Skating schedules are also posted there, so you'll know what to expect ahead of time.

The usual public session for adults is 60 AED; however, if you arrive at a different time, prices may vary between 80 to 100 AED/adult. Aside for that, you'll have to shell-out an additional 20 AED for locker use, but you can refund it right after your session though. :)

They also offer lessons for a fee, depending on availability; otherwise, you can just ask the instructors for skating tips while you glide around on your own.

For the foodies: Elevation Burger is a burger joint that is located right above Dubai Ice Rink. Prices are Dubai-standard (haha) for fast-food, so it's neither that expensive nor cheap.

So there ya go. :)
