Anniversary Post: Dubai, in a nut-shell

------------------------------------------------
Because it's officially my first year!
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
9 March 2016
------------------------------------------------

What some people think it is:


Desert Safari Trip

But, actually, it's these...





Souk Al Bahar, Dubai Mall


Dubai Mall: A portion of the Burj Al Khalifa to your right


Burjuman Bus Stop


Oud Metha Road


International City

Sometimes, it's also this:

Dubai Healthcare City on a foggy day

or that:
Dubai Healthcare City on an EXTREMELY foggy day

And in extremely rare cases, this:
Flood?!!? O_O
It doesn't happen often though, and it's not really that bad. Don't worry.


On the flip-side though, it can also become THIS:

Dubai Healthcare City, during a sandstorm
Don't go out even with a mask; it will hurt your lungs.
LITERALLY. As in each time you breathe, it will.

But, you know, despite that... Dubai loves to entertain its guests so, most of the time, you'll see things like this:


Dubai, showing off: a wild Ferrari appears!
While we were riding in a Mercedes Luxury car, driven by our beloved chief. Haha.


Or you can go out and do these:

Ski Dubai, Mall of the Emirates

Dubai Ice Rink, Dubai Mall

Or, if you're not up to it, then you can just go to the mall:

Wafi Mall, Dubai Healthcare City
Yes, it is a pyramid mall!


Dubai will not let you down. Even after a busy day, Dubai will make sure to keep you entertained and ease your troubles away... perhaps, by showing you some of her famous man-made marvels:

Burj Khalifa.
Haven't been there, but I will soon. :D

Burj Al Arab.
Meh... I just like to look at it. Too expensive. Haha.

There's more to Dubai than just these; so, if you're planning to travel soon with this place in mind, then go! By all means!
