Exclamation: Horay! We have returned from our travel (One Week) from Dubai, and my what an adventure it was!
Sadly...*Collapses to the floor in exhaustion)
...yes, sorry, I am tired and I'm feeling a little too lazy to post the pictures and information at the moment. My apologies, folks. The next time I log in I'll post them up as soon as I can.
Addendum: Dubai was great!

Welcome back, Tenkan! Since you're tired from your trip, I won't force you to post pictures and details of Dubai. Yet.  |

Statement: I am now fully functional and ready to update my statement of the trip to Dubai. I've learned a lot, seen a lot, and admired many scenes of Dubai. Clarification: Before I post the pictures I would like to say the things that I have not taken photos of; My brothers and I watched The Dark Knight and also watched the premiere of 'The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor', honestly...it wasn't as good as the first or second one. We also spent a day at the amusement park of Wild Wahdi, which is right next to the seven star hotel, Burj Al-Arab. Yes, seven star…BIG! Continuation: I was awed by Dubai's nice buildings...  ...including the soon to be tallest building in the world!  Observation: A lot of big plans unfolding, as you can see...  Exclamation: An indoor skiing facility!  Relieved Statement: Yes, finally, I got the chance to lay my eyes on snow...well, artificial. But I suppose it still counts. Observation: Now let us take a look inside, shall we? Commentary: My little brother getting ready to freeze...  ... Darth says he's under 13 and needs to wear a helmet. Yes, he never speaks clearly.  ...a huge skiing hill...  ...Darth and my other sibling in an ice bar...  ...and Darth_Comrade...frozen.  Conclusion: These were the only good pictures I had, the others were either messy, irrelevant or confidential. Conclusive Conclusion: All in all, it was all worthwhile. Or as my meatbag brother Darth would say...."it was awesome." |

Addendum: Oh, and the meatbag in the ice-bar picture is some random shmoe...(Middle)

Dubai looks amazing, and it looks like ya'll had a good time!  ... Darth says he's under 13 and needs to wear a helmet. Yes, he never speaks clearly. *la-gasp* Darth! Lying about your age in a word bubble! For shame!   |

That looks like it was so fun, even though the snow isn't real!

That looks like it was so fun, even though the snow isn't real! Agreement: It was fun! And painful, too! As soon as I entered the icy parts I slipped...thankfully, no meatbag was there to see that embarrassing moment happen. |

Dude, that's frakkin' awesome. Dubai's brilliant, went there in 2004 for a vacation once. The mall's are too DIE for. It's amusing to see a ski-ing place in one of the hottest countries ever.

Agreement: It is a wonderful place to be...and I always wonder why we spent our lives in Saudi Arabia than in the United Arab Emirates.

Leave it to Tenkan to mess up the title of this thread. And there's nothing with lying about my age....... the helmets were cool. |
