Take off! 🛫
1 listopada 2023, Anglia ⋅ 🌧 12 °C
Today's the day I embark on a trip around the globe! Jetting off from Manchester airport with Pegasus airlines. Flying to Istanbul first with a few hours to change before heading on to Dubai. Highlight of the day has to be inheriting a full grab bag of Malteasers off the lady sat next to me on my first flight. Czytaj więcej

Arriving in Dubai
2 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ 🌙 25 °C
I arrived into Dubai in the early hours of the morning and after a bit of a debacle getting from Sharjah airport to my friends apartment it was in fact light! As I settled down from my amazement at the apartments view of the Palm I got my head down for a few hours of much needed sleep. Czytaj więcej

JBR
2 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C
After marvelling at the view out to the Palm once again I set off to explore the local area of Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) which of course included Dubai public beach!

Bluewaters Island
2 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie
A stroll across the bridge to one of Dubai's many man made islands. Not a lot to see here really other than hotels and restaurants but a nice view across to JBR! Also a fun fact that the world's largest ferris wheel can be found here but no longer turns since when it's turned on it starts to sink the island into the sea! Czytaj więcej

Dubai Marina at Night
2 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ 🌙 30 °C
We spent the first night in Dubai in the only way possible by heading down to the Marina for food and drinks, including the most expensive double vodka lemonade I've ever known at about £25, no surprise I only had one. Czytaj więcej

The Palm Jumeirah
3 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C
To kick off day 2 we took a taxi to the Palm Jumeirah monorail station. The sheer size and scale of the man-made island is quite astounding with the famous Atlantis Resort at its peak. We failed to get even into the lobby so headed back towards the mainland via the mall for some lunch. Czytaj więcej

Namaste Beach Club
3 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C
With free entry and a bottle of Rose for £20 at happy hour it would have been rude not to pay Namaste Beach Club a visit. Great views from all angles too!

Global Village
3 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie
Calling this place a village is somewhat of an understatement as it was more like a medium sized town! In the 'village' landmarks could be found from around the world as well as a large market for every single Asian country and the other countinents. I was delighted to be given a free bottle of milk with my dinner but oh no, turns out Lebanese (I think) milk is disgusting, no wonder they were giving it away. Czytaj więcej

Desert Half Day Trip
4 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie
It was an early start today as we headed out for a trip to the desert! We were picked up in a lovely air conditioned vehicle and driven out of the city to a base where we would try quad biking, camel riding, dune bashing and sand boarding. Our driver was delighted when he received a phone call on the way home to say that his afternoon guests had cancelled. He said this would be his first evening off (after 5pm) for 3 months as he usually works 7am - 11pm every single day. He didn't seem bothered by his distinct lack of work life balance but definitely needs to join a union. Czytaj więcej

Burj Al Arab & Souk Madinak
4 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie
No rest for the wicked with a lot to see so we headed to Souk Madinak to feast our eyes on the Burj Al Arab. I had probably one of my best lunch experiences of all time as the food, view and live background music were all amazing! The company was alright too. Czytaj więcej

Dubai Old Town
4 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie
As if the day hadn't been busy and long enough already we spent almost an hour on the tram to get to Dubai Old Town including the famous Gold Souk and bunking onto the dodgiest boat transfer of all time where the 'captain' steered the boat with his foot which resulted in the boat unsurprisingly crashing into the mooring.

JBR Pub
4 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ 🌙 27 °C
Ready to go to bed at this point but we soldiered on to a near by Irish bar to watch Newcastle v Arsenal. We stopped for McDonalds on the way and I just had to give the chicken curry a go (with extra chicken nuggets added on top). Czytaj więcej

Burj Khalifa
5 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Another early start to get up the Burj Khalifa! Phenomenal panoramic views of across Dubai and beyond. An Indian man whom I had never met before also asked for his picture with me for some reason. Also seriously impressed that I managed to fit the worlds tallest building into a selfie. Czytaj więcej

Dubai Mall
5 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
Next door to the Burj Khalifa is the whopping Dubai Mall featuring an ice skating rink, aquarium and waterfall. It is also home to a recently opened branch of Castore, a sportswear brand founded in 2015 by two brothers from the Wirral! We then sat down for a balcony burger for lunch overlooking the mall fountains and Burj Khalifa. Czytaj więcej

Leaving Dubai
6 listopada 2023, Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
This morning I waved goodbye to Dubai and took the metro to the airport. It was time to head to Melbourne (via Manila) with the help of Cebu Pacific. My luck was in today as I was granted extra legroom seats for both legs of the trip, although I had to pay a non-monetary price for this as a child wet himself right in front of me as dinner was being served.

Yarra Valley Wine Tour
9 listopada 2023, Australia
An early start to proceedings today but with good reason, a wine tour! If memory serves me right we visited 3 wineries, a gin distillery and also a stop for lunch. I was already growing to like both rose and white wine before this voyage but turns out I like red wine too! Czytaj więcej

Albert Park
10 listopada 2023, Australia
As the day before the wedding, the women and our hosts were busy preparing so me and dad head out for a spot of sightseeing. First up was Albert Park, home to the Australian Grand Prix. We were free to roam the pit lane and it couldn't have been made more obvious which parts of the park and road were used for F1 as the difference in tarmaccing standards was apparent! Czytaj więcej
