JONATHAN et al. ARE IN DUBAI! (Day 8)

1-26-14




This was 
JONATHAN et al.
very last day in the UAE.
So we had to make it a memorable one!
Another ROAD TRIP to
AL AIN
to spend some time at
WADI ADVENTURE!



Because of a couple of
LOOPS OF SHAME,
we arrived just in time for
JONATHAN et al.
to be taken into the Briefing Room
for directions on
WHITE WATER RAFTING!

 

After they were briefed,
they suited up
and were ready for a trial run through the rapids!


They were definitely excited!


Off they paddled for their trial run!
(Note the smooooooth not-for-long water!)



Meanwhile, people zip lined over the water!



My oh my, what concentration!



They proved they were ready for
the white water,
so off they went, carrying their raft.



Um yeah, note the not-so-smooth water now!



And their day just wouldn't be complete without
capsizing!  OMG!






I'm happy to report that they survived
WHITE WATER RAFTING
in the desert!



Back in Dubai, we visited 
SKI DUBAI in the MALL OF THE EMIRATES!




And then we stopped by the
BURJ AL ARAB,
the only 7 Star hotel in the world!



Back home to pack and play with SHALLIE.....
for the very last time!

We went over to the 
JUMEIRAH BEACH WALK
for our last dinner together, outside at
INDIA PALACE!



Our last hug with this guy
until we return to Indianapolis!

And off
JONATHAN et al.
went into the airport to wait on their flight back to the
DEEP FREEZE!
Thanks for visiting, Jonathan, Ted, Nate and Miranda!

Would you believe
"the most luxurious hotel in the world"
THE BURJ AL ARAB,
will soon be equipping its guests with.....

(Tadaaaaaaaaaa!)
.......24-karat gold iPads worth over $10,000 each!*!
Yes, the
BURJ AL ARAB,
which is comprised of 202 luxury suites,
which features in-suite check-in and check-out,
reception desks on each floor,
a rooftop tennis court (i.e. helipad),
round-the-clock private butlers,
a fleet of Rolls Royces to be used by guests,
just added yet another piece of
BIG*BETTER*BEST*BLING
to its repertoire!
Ya just gotta love it!
