Back in Dubai

Dear reader

back in Dubai we really struck a super ramadan end-deal for the day at one of the *****Hotels of the town. We're located right across from Dubai Mall and very near to the Burj Khalifa. To be honest, at over 40° Celcius there's not much more to do than eat, drink, watch TV and sleep. We're not very interested in the mall and swimming would have been an option early morning when the water still had a humanly supportable temperature. Now, the water has approx. 32° and there are only a few kids in the pool. We're waiting for it to be 7pm so we can go and have Lebanese food for dinner. I just reserved a table...

Here are a few pics of the suite and the hotel we're at. It's called the 'Al Murooj Rotana'.


The entrance, to the left a room with two king size
beds and a full bathroom
 
the only thing to do at over 40°
and three TVs in the house :-)
 
to the right, the living/dining room from where...
 
...it leads to the master bedroom with
a HUGE bed and a full bathroom
 
the living-room also hosts a small office area
with high-speed LAN (bliss!)
 
that's the view from our balcony
 
Angelika just decided to go and have a dip in
the pool, I was prepared to swim also but that
water is too hot for me, I could not function
anymore afterwards
 
 
I'll sleep a bit now and then go for dinner and then pack up again for the airport and then fly to Frankfurt and then on to Zurich and then take a ride home. I'm sort of between places, missing the one I have just left behind and looking forward to the one I call home.
 
There will be one last blog-entry this week-end to wrap-up. Until then - Eid Mubarak, everyone!
