My Dubai Trip






-=-=-=-=-=

This is my first trip to Dubai.Mr. Ahmed & His Family came to ma home to pickup. We started around 7 am from Oman.
Later Mr. Rao & Sharma joined vth us.
We got struck much time at Hatta (Oman-UAE)Border. Must say that Syed, and naz were in a much better position coming by Buraimi Border.
Having arrived in UAE safely, met with PJ nearby Dragon Mart.

Ahmed & Rao booked the double bedroom in AL Bustan Towers, Sharjah.
Then we had our lunch in PJ's home.
After a good deal of eating and some TV watching (in PJ’s home), we finally left the place a little past 3.30pm and got a drop right back to Burj dubai!

After taking snapshots at burj dubai.. we moved to The Dubai Mall.
Dubai Mall,Dubai Aquarium and Under Water Zoo
The Mall's Dubai Aquarium and Discovery Centre, developed and operated by Oceanis Australia Group, officially earned the Guinness World Record for the world's "Largest Acrylic Panel" (32.88 m wide × 8.3 m high × 750 mm thick and weighing 245,614 kg). The acrylic viewing panel is larger than Japan's Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium (22.5 m wide × 8.2 m high and 600 mm thick). Its 750 mm thick acrylic viewing panel can withstand pressure of 10 million litres of water used in the aquarium, but its transparency gives visitors clear views of over 33,000 marine animals on display.

We spent more than 5 hours in aquarium.However we did struggle to capture the Pics inside Boat.
Next deal is to find the good South Indian Hotel for Dinner.We didn't have any plans...
We finally left the place and moved to Bur Dubai....Bundle of indian restaurants there...We chosen Saravana Bhavan..

We slept quite late ( in fact early in the morning) after the big deal on Tuesday and it was quite a bit of a problem awaking by 7am to make it for the 8am mass.
However, we did struggle out of our beds and get ready.
